Pacific Wings will create a subsidiary to do business here as "Georgia Skies" and will offer 26 roundtrip flights form Macon to Atlanta per week on a Cessna Grand Caravan C-208B, a nine passenger single-engine plane. 

Pacific Wings is taking over service from Atlanta Southeast Airlines at Middle Georgia Regional Airport. 

Pacific Wings is also taking over passenger air service in Athens, whose regional carrier announced its departure last August.

The airline was established and started operations in July 1974when it was incorporated as Air Nevada, an on-demand charter operator. Scheduled services started in 1978. After Eagle Canyon Airlines acquired its network of tour operators, Air Nevada ceased operations in January 1998, changed its operating name to Pacific Wings and continued its scheduled services within Hawaii.
