Envoy will remain a fully owned subsidy of American Airlines and will continue to operate under the American Eagle livery and branding, but will operate more similarly to the way Sky. West operates for AA/American Eagle now. The announcement of the pending name change, came over a year ago, but until now the name had not been announced.
On January 15, 2014, it was announced that American Eagle Airlines would change its name to Envoy Air to distinguish the company from the American Eagle brand, under which several carriers operate regional flight service for American. The name change took effect on April 15 of that year and the rest, as they say, is history .
Envoy is headquartered in Irving, Texas with large operations in American’s hubs, including Dallas/Fort Worth, Chicago, Miami and Los Angeles. On April 15, 2014 the company changed its name to Envoy Air Inc. to distinguish the company from the American Eagle brand, under which several carriers operate regional flight service for American.
I learned aircraft operated by American Eagle continued to operate under the current American Eagle branding, but an “Operated by Envoy Air” label was added , similar to the label used by other contract airlines that fly aircraft with American Eagle livery.
August 19 was National Aviation Day, and this year, Envoy is going all out. To honor Envoy’s rich history and the founding airlines that came together to become American Eagle Airlines and later Envoy, we’re proud to introduce an American Eagle Heritage Livery for our latest Embraer 170 (E170) aircraft – N760MQ.
