[edit] History

The airline was established in 1981 in Mountain Village, Alaska, with a Cessna 180 aircraft. It was owned by James Tweto, President of the airline and Mike Hageland and had 172 employees (at March 2007).[2]

Frontier and Hageland combined in 2008 to form the parent company HoTH and rebrand their new services as "Frontier Alaska." The following year, with the acquisition of Era, Frontier Alaska was rebranded as Era Alaska.[3]
