Reno Air was a scheduled passenger airline that provided service from its hubs at Reno/Tahoe International Airport in Reno, Nevada and San Jose International Airport in San Jose, California to destinations throughout the western United States, with limited service to the US east coast. Its fleet consisted of McDonnell Douglas MD-80 and MD-90 aircraft. In addition, Jetstream 31 aircraft were operated as Reno Air Express by Mid Pacific Air.
Founded in June 1990, the airline's first flight was on July 1, 1992, a nonstop flight from Reno to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport in Seattle, Washington. Following the development of its Reno hub, the airline purchased the San Jose hub of American Airlines and built it up as a second hub. At the same time, the airline joined American's AAdvantage program, allowing AAdvantage members to earn credit for flying Reno Air. In February 1999, Reno Air was purchased by American, and flew its last flight on August 30 of that year.
