Western Airlines operated for only a few weeks in 2007, beginning with a January 18 flight from Bellingham to Ontario, California. Its planned network included Southern California and Arizona, reflecting a local push to expand travel options beyond Seattle. The airline suspended operations on February 7 after debts to suppliers, and its planned service did not resume. This sign celebrates a short-lived chapter in regional aviation, with an appeal for airline collectors and anyone interested in Bellingham's travel history.

Western Airlines was a short-lived American low-cost airline headquartered in Bellingham, Washington. It grew from a local effort to bring more passenger service to Bellingham International Airport: in 2004, Port of Bellingham officials set a goal of adding destinations beyond Seattle, and in late 2005 the Port announced a lease with the startup, founded by two local businessmen with aviation experience. On November 16, 2006, the airline announced planned January service from Bellingham to four vacation destinations; Reno, Nevada, was later cancelled before flights began. Operations started on January 18, 2007, with a flight to Ontario, California. Western operated as a scheduled charter using aircraft wet leased from Xtra Airways while pursuing FAA approval as a commercial airline. Its network included Bellingham, Ontario, San Diego, and Mesa/Phoenix, Arizona. On February 7, 2007, Western suspended operations because of debts to suppliers, including Xtra Airways and its Bellingham fuel vendor. Xtra Airways continued flying to return Western passengers to their originating airport. The source does not identify a successor or a merger; Western's planned service did not resume.
