United Airlines Boeing 787-9

On April 6, 1926, Varney Air Lines—named after the company’s founder, Walter Varney—took off on its first mail flight in Pasco, Washington, bound for Elko, Nevada. A year later, a certain William Boeing established his own airline. Through acquisitions in the following years, the manufacturer took over — or rather, united — several companies, including Varney Air Lines, under one umbrella and renamed his Boeing Air Transport to United Aircraft & Transport Corporation. Finally, in 1931, the company name was shortened to United Air Lines. Since then, the airline has grown into one of the largest in the world: With nearly 1,100 aircraft—not even counting the United Express feeder fleet —United operates the largest fleet of aircraft worldwide. ,On April 6, 1926, Varney Air Lines—named after the company’s founder, Walter Varney—took off on its first mail flight in Pasco, Washington, bound for Elko, Nevada.
