Western Pacific Airlines, or WestPac, took up
service on April 28, 1995 using eight Boeing 737-300 jets. The
low-cost airline was formed in 1994 under the name Commercial Air
but the name was changed to Western Pacific for marketing reasons.
Originally based at Colorado Springs airport, Western Pacific
flights were predominantly west of the Mississippi River. Later the
airline's route system spread to the east coast and expanded on the
west coast as new Boeing 737s were purchased. At times the airline
leased Boeing 727s. The airline declared bankruptcy in February
1998 and ceased all operations.
