History
Era Alaska was formed from the merger of the Frontier Alaska Group, Frontier Flying Service, Era Aviation, and Hageland Aviation. The three airlines partnered together and now serve as the largest air carrier in the state of Alaska by connecting more cities and passengers, utilizing the largest airplane fleet in Alaska. In 2010, the partnership was re-branded as "Era Alaska". The airline group also acquired Arctic Circle Air Service, a local cargo airline, in 2010. The airline's history in providing safe air service has earned it the Medallion Shield by the Medallion Foundation.
