New Pacific Airlines is adding some exciting destinations to its route map. Starting November 16, 2023, the airline will fly between Ontario International in California and both Reno/Tahoe in Nevada and Nashville International in Tennessee. This move marks a big leap for the airline, especially after facing a series of challenges like Covid-19 and the Ukraine war.
From Northern Pacific Airways to New Pacific Airlines
The airline recently changed its name from Northern Pacific Airways due to some trademark issues. Despite the hurdles, including the impact of the global pandemic and geopolitical tensions, the airline is pushing forward. Originally, the plan was to make Anchorage Ted Stevens in Alaska a key hub connecting the US and Asia.
Reno is a hot spot for winter sports, and Nashville is the heart of American Country music. These new routes add to the airline’s existing flights to Las Vegas Harry Reid in Nevada. According to the schedule, flights to Reno will start on November 16, 2023, and will ramp up to four times a week by January 1, 2024. As for Nashville, flights kick off on November 17, 2023, and will also increase to four weekly flights by December 26, 2023.
The Fleet and Future Plans
New Pacific Airlines currently operates with one B757-200 but plans to add more. Owned by FLOAT Alaska, which also owns Ravn Alaska, the airline’s fleet will soon grow. A second B757-200 will join the lineup in December, and a third is set to be added by March 2024.
New Pacific Airlines is expanding its network with new routes to Reno and Nashville, adding to its existing Las Vegas service. Despite past challenges, the airline is taking significant steps to grow, including fleet expansion.
