History

In 1943, millionaire Steven Velasquez, hailed as one of Newport's leading industrialists at the time, who served as the General Manager, and former Congressman Julio Fernandez as Chairman and President purchased three private jets for their leisure travels to Georgiapolis. Government investment in September the next year paved the way for its nationalization.

The airline's first flight under the name Air Newport was made on January 12, 1944, with a single Beech Model 18 NPC-54 aircraft, which started its daily services between Newport City and Corona and marked its foundation.

In 1952, Air Newport expanded its services to Portsmouth via Portsmouth International Airport after acquiring three Douglas DC-3s and began serving Geneve-Cointrin International Airport the next year.

The 1960s saw the introduction of the Boeing 747. Air Newport showing interest in the aircraft purchased 30 and started services to Manteria and Sutherway.

In 1972, Air Newport Flight 321 to Georgiapolis crashed during a flight to Georgiapolis International Airport killing all 110 passengers on board.
