This airline was actually founded in 1967 by Herb Kelleher and Rollin King, but it took the former several years to overcome the legal and regulatory challenges to start flying.

The first routes connected Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio. It formed the foundation from which the airline would work towards offering low-cost and customer-friendly air travel within the state of Texas.
