A timeline of milestones since FlyAcorn first took off.
December 11, 2016
FlyAcorn Founded
FlyAcorn was founded by WildAcorn13 (formerly AcornPlayzRoblox). We started out flying from Oceanside, FL. We used a Sukhoi Superjet SJ-100 for these routes.
2017 – mid 2018
Move to Acorn Hill
We moved our operations to Acorn Hill, OR and started flying from there to Oceanside, FL. We used an Airbus A319 for this route, which had an emergency landing (see it here). Sadly it got written off after that, so we switched to a Dornier 328 instead.
2018
South Rock – North Rock
We added a route between South Rock, CA and North Rock, CA, which are 2 small islands off the coast of Los Angeles. It was a small commuter service which we ran using the same Embraer ERJ145 and Boeing 737-800.
July 2018
Acornbus 100 Introduced
Acornbus Industries built us the Acornbus 100, made specifically for FlyAcorn! Our very own aircraft, unique to us.
2019
Westfield
We then moved to Westfield. This was a mountainous region with a ton of snow, so it was a big change from our old routes. From there we connected a bunch of small cities around the region using the Acornbus 100.
June 2019
FlyAcorn Rockets
We launched a subsidiary called FlyAcorn Rockets, which sends passengers to outer space! The return ticket was not always guaranteed...
Fall 2019
New Aircraft Join the Fleet
Throughout fall 2019 we added the Bombardier Q400, Saab 340 and the Avro RJ85. It served the mountain routes well due to their small size.
February 2020
FlyAcorn Executive
We added FlyAcorn Executive, offering private jet flights across North America.
Now (early 2020)
Clearwater Hub
We set up a new hub in Clearwater, OR and started flying to North Rock, CA and Oceanside, FL (home of the world-famous Oceanside Speedway). We also took delivery of new Airbus A320neo and Boeing 737-8 MAX aircraft.
