SunAir Express Virtual Airlines was founded in May 1992 by Jim Swanson from Tampa, Florida, as the world's first virtual airline on the Prodigy Online Service when he opened SunAir Express Virtual Airline and the Tampa Airport hub.
Jim Swanson passed away in 1995 but we believe that his spirit lives on today in every virtual airline.

Thank you and as Jim Swanson used to tell his pilots, "Keep 'em flying!"
