Product Details & Size Guide
Raise a glass to the Utah carrier that grew from a local connection into a far-reaching regional airline. SkyWest began with Dixie Airlines in 1972, linking St. George and Salt Lake City, then expanded through acquisitions and evolving partnerships. Its Western Express beginnings and later service for Delta, United, and American reflect decades of changing skies. This pint glass brings that distinctive chapter of aviation history to relaxed evenings, home gatherings, and conversations with fellow airline history enthusiasts.
SkyWest Airlines traces its origins to Dixie Airlines, which St. George, Utah, lawyer Ralph Atkin purchased on April 26, 1972, to connect local business travelers with Salt Lake City. After early challenges, the carrier expanded across the western United States. Its 1984 acquisition of Sun Aire Lines, based in Palm Springs, California, made it the eleventh-largest regional carrier at the time; SkyWest went public in 1986. That year it began flying as Western Express for Western Airlines. Following Western's acquisition by Delta Air Lines in 1987, SkyWest became a Delta Connection carrier. It added United Express service in 1997 and American Eagle service in 2012, while also operating for other partners over the years. SkyWest, Inc. acquired Atlantic Southeast Airlines in 2005 and planned to combine it with ExpressJet in 2010; ExpressJet was later sold, with the sale closing in 2019. In 2024, SkyWest took a 25 percent stake in Contour Airlines and agreed to operate additional Embraer 175 aircraft for United Express. Headquartered in St. George, the company operates regional flights under partner airline brands, linking smaller communities with major airline hubs.
A sturdy 16oz pint glass that brings a little roadhouse spirit to everyday pours. The clear tempered glass showcases whatever you fill it with — amber beer, cold brew, or fresh juice — while a bold vintage-inspired script wraps the side for a subtle, nostalgic touch. It feels solid in the hand, resists everyday wear, and pairs easily with bar carts, kitchen counters, or a laid-back backyard table. Wash gently by hand to keep the lettering sharp and the glass crystal-clear. Built from tempered materials and assembled in the USA, this glass fits into evenings spent swapping stories, weekend morning routines, or those slow, quiet moments when a simple drink matters.
