Product Details & Size Guide
Celebrate the story of a regional carrier with this Sun Aire Lines T-shirt. Founded in 1968 as Borrego Springs Airlines, the company first connected Borrego Springs with communities including San Diego and Palm Springs. It took the Sun Aire name in 1975 and went on to serve destinations across Southern California and Arizona. Its small Metro II commuter turboprops helped define the airline, which was purchased by SkyWest in 1984 and flew its final service on September 28, 1985. A thoughtful choice for aviation fans and collectors of local airline history.
Sun Aire Lines was a United States commuter airline that operated from 1968 to 1985. Founded in 1968 as Borrego Springs Airlines, it initially provided service to Borrego Springs, California, through Borrego Valley Airport, connecting the community with destinations in southern California, including San Diego and Palm Springs. The airline later moved its headquarters to Palm Springs. Its early fleet included Cessna 402 twin-engine propeller aircraft and Swearingen Metro II turboprops. In 1975, Borrego Springs Airlines changed its name to Sun Aire. Its primary destinations included Palm Springs, San Diego, Los Angeles, Borrego Springs, Phoenix, Yuma, Santa Barbara and Santa Maria. By 1984, it operated a dozen Metro II aircraft and was purchased by SkyWest Airlines. At the time of acquisition, Sun Aire operated 19-passenger Fairchild Swearingen Metroliner Metro II commuter turboprops. Sun Aire flew its final service on September 28, 1985, and was then merged into SkyWest.
