Set up your screen with a nod to World Airways, a carrier whose history reaches from postwar charter flying to jet-era operations and military airlift. Founded in 1948, the airline served passengers and government contracts before beginning scheduled flights in 1979. Its Oakland roots and role in the final 1975 airlift flight out of Đà Nẵng make it a memorable subject for aviation enthusiasts. This foldable phone display stand is a practical desk companion for collectors, travelers, and airline history fans.
World Airways was founded on March 29, 1948, by Benjamin Pepper, a former Pan American World Airways flying boat pilot. It began with three former Pan Am Boeing 314 flying boats and was later sold to Beroviche Steamship Company. Edward Daly bought the airline in 1950 and added Douglas DC-4s; a government contract followed in 1951. Initially a charter and supplemental carrier, World was barred from scheduled service under federal regulation. After deregulation, it began scheduled flights in 1979, using aircraft including Boeing 727s and McDonnell Douglas DC-10s. During the Vietnam War it flew troops and equipment from Oakland, California, and operated the final airlift flight out of Đà Nẵng on March 29, 1975. The airline later operated military, charter, cargo, and wet-lease services. Its headquarters moved from Teterboro, New Jersey, to Oakland in 1956, then to the Washington area in 1987 and Peachtree City, Georgia, in 2001. World became part of World Air Holdings in 2006 and was later acquired by ATA Holdings, renamed Global Aero Logistics. It ceased operations on March 27, 2014. In 2017, 777 Partners acquired its intellectual property and announced plans to relaunch the brand.
