Transamerica Airlines

Transamerica Airlines logoTrans International Airlines (TIA) was an airline that offered charter service from and within the United States. It offered scheduled service operating as Transamerica Airlines in its last decade. Its headquarters were on the grounds of Oakland International Airport.
Kirk Kerkorian purchased Los Angeles Air Service, a small charter operator, in 1947. As tourism to Las Vegas boomed, so did the fortunes of the airline. To better reflect its growing route structure, the airline was renamed Trans International Airlines in 1960. Between 1966 and 1986 TIA operated regular charter flights to Europe. Transamerica purchased Universal Airlines and in 1976, Saturn Airways, and merged their operations into TIA. In 1979 the airline was renamed Transamerica Airlines and it commenced scheduled transatlantic passenger flights. TIA was heavily involved in the transport of troops during the Vietnam, Angola, and Middle East conflicts and the relocation of refugees. The airline was dissolved and ceased operations in 1986.
