The airline was established in 2002 and started operations on June 1, 2004, with flights on a Scottsbluff - North Platte - Kearney - Lincoln - Omaha route also known as "the river route".^[1] On November 30, 2004, a new operation was created in New Mexico linking Albuquerque with Alamogordo, Gallup, Las Cruces, and Taos.

As the Albuquerque to Alamogordo route was subsidized under Essential Air Service, the airline was ordered to maintain operating this route. Flights were reinstated for a few more days but operations were stopped altogether on July 25, 2005.^[3]
