PBA was probably the most significant commuter airline in Florida history. The airline operated two divisions, one in Cape Cod and one in Florida, with seasonal traffic patterns that complimented each other. The Florida division was known as Naples Airlines from 1960 to 1980, when the name was changed to simply PBA. From 1980 to 1984, the airline grew from a relatively small niche carrier to the largest commuter airline on the planet.
