Western Pacific Airlines Metal Sign
Bring WestPac history into your space with a sign honoring Western Pacific Airlines. Founded in 1994 as Commercial Air, the carrier began scheduled flights the following year and built its early identity around Colorado Springs. It later moved its hub to Denver, while promotional aircraft tied the airline to destinations and popular culture. The company’s short run ended in 1998, but its bold marketing and changing ambitions remain memorable to aviation fans and collectors.
Western Pacific Airlines, also known as WestPac, was a U.S. low-cost carrier that operated from 1995 to 1998. Formed in 1994 as Commercial Air, it later adopted the Western Pacific name and began scheduled passenger flights on April 28, 1995, with eight Boeing 737-300 aircraft. Its headquarters were in unincorporated El Paso County, near Colorado Springs, and Colorado Springs Airport was its original hub. The airline initially focused on routes west of the Mississippi River, then expanded east and along the West Coast. It also leased two Boeing 727-200 jets for service to Washington Dulles and operated Mountain Air Express, a commuter affiliate that fed passengers to its hubs with Dornier 328 turboprops. In 1997, Western Pacific moved its hub to Denver International Airport and announced plans to acquire the newer Denver-based Frontier Airlines, but the proposed merger was canceled during financial review. Western Pacific filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy and ceased operations in February 1998. Its fleet included Boeing 737-300s; planned Boeing 737-700 deliveries did not take place. Its distinctive logojet promotions included aircraft themed around destinations, resorts, businesses, and a television show.
