Sun Aire Lines

Sun Aire Lines

Sun Aire Lines is a defunct United States commuter airline which operated from 1968 to 1984. Sun Aire served a number of cities in Southern California and Arizona.

History

Sun Aire Lines was founded as Borrego Springs Airlines in 1968, but soon thereafter changed its name to Sun Aire Lines. Its operations initially focused on services from Borrego Springs, but the airline later moved its headquarters to Palm Springs, California. Sun Aire operated a fleet of Cessna 402, and Swearingen Metro aircraft during its career. Its primary destinations were Palm Springs, San Diego, Los Angeles, Borrego Springs, Yuma, and Santa Maria. By 1984, the airline was operating a dozen Metro aircraft. Sun Aire's independent existence ended that year after the company was purchased by SkyWest Airlines. The airline operated its final service on September 28, 1984.
