America West Express

America West Express is the name for America West Airlines commuter and regional flights operated by Mesa Air Group under a code share agreement. Mesa Air Group operates the America West Express hubs at Sky Harbor International Airport in Phoenix, Arizona, McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas, Nevada, and Los Angeles International Airport in Los Angeles, California. The America West Express #Fleet consists of 43 turboprop and jet aircraft. ==History== On November 30, 1992, America West stopped Dash-8 regional aircraft service as Mesa Airlines began a code-share agreement with America West Airlines. The name "America West Express" was taken from the old America West Airlines cargo service which had begun in 1985. America West Express started as a regional carrier in association with America West Airlines with a hub at Sky Harbor International Airport in Phoenix, Arizona. With the opening of the America West Airlines hub at Port Columbus International Airport in Columbus, Ohio, America West Airlines used the Chautauqua Airlines subsidary Air Midwest to provide commuter service to feed the hub. When the hub was shut down, the Chautauqua Airlines code share was discontinued. In (2003?) America West decided to make greater use the RJs by greatly increasing the number of RJ flights into Las Vegas. ==Destinations== ''See full article:'' America West Express destinations ==Fleet== {| cellpadding="3" cellpadding="5" border="1" style="border-collapse: collapse" |- bgcolor="#cccccc" |+ America West Express Fleet | Type || align=right|Number || align=right|Seats || align=right|Orders/Options |- |Canadair CRJ-200 |align=right|18 |align=right|50 | |- |Canadair CRJ-700 |align=right|10 |align=right|64 | |- |Canadair CRJ-900 |align=right|6 |align=right|90 | |- |Beechcraft 1900D |align=right|3 |align=right|19 | |- |De Havilland Canada Dash 8 |align=right|6 |align=right|37 |align=right|0 |} == Identifying Codes== Since these are code share flights, the America West Airlines#Identifying Codes codes are used.

==Move to America West Airlines== I'm merging the content of this very very stubby page with America West Airlines. It's informative and adds to the content of the other page. I'll put a redirect here to the America West Airlines page. --User:Abqwildcat 22:32, 3 Aug 2004 (UTC) ==Need pictures== Does anyone have a picture of the America West Express logo for this page? A few other pictures would also be nice. This page was put back since there is a lot more information than in the old stub. User:Vegaswikian 22:53, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
