World Airways was founded in 1948 by Benjamin Pepper with the introduction of ex-Pan American World Airways Boeing 314 flying boats. Edward Daly, however is thought of as World's founder. He bought the airline in 1950 for $50,000 and proceeded to acquire DC-4s.

World got its first government contract in 1951 and has had a substantial amount of government business since then.

Later, World acquired DC-6s and Lockheed Constellations. World entered the jet era in the late 1960s with Boeing 707s and 727s. In the early 1970s World acquired Douglas DC-8s.

World became a key military contractor during the Vietnam War, flying troops and equipment between the war zone and World's base at Oakland International Airport. On March 29, 1975, World operated the last airlift flight out of Da Nang, Vietnam. Two 727s were flown to Da Nang, one of which landed with Daly aboard. Thousands rushed the airplane and it took off on a taxiway under heavy fire. The aircraft with Daly aboard started its takeoff roll with the 727's back airstairs still down with Daly fending off additional people trying to leave due to over capacity (The film of this was later broadcast on the CBS Evening News on March 30, 1975). When the airplane landed at Saigon, there were 268 people in the cabin and possibly 60 or more in the cargo holds. World did not return to Da Nang until April 17, 2002, then with an MD-11 aircraft to pick up a team of people resolving Missing-In-Action cases from the Vietnam War.

Also, in the early 1970s, World operated three Boeing 747 aircraft and was the launch customer for the "flip nose" front-loading variant of the 747. Later, World acquired DC-10s some of which it still operates today. World experienced heavy losses in the 1980s as a result of an attempt at scheduled service. In the late 1980s, the company moved its headquarters from Oakland to Washington Dulles International Airport, acquired Key Airlines and established ties to Malaysia Airlines. World was burdened financially as its cash was siphoned off by parent WorldCorp to support a telecommunications venture in which the parent had invested. During the first Persian Gulf War, World did a substantial amount of profitable business for the military, enabling the addition of the MD-11 to the fleet. During the mid 1990s, World operated the military passenger trunk route from Osan Air Base, Korea and Kadena Air Base, Okinawa to Los Angeles, using MD-11 aircraft. World has been headquartered near Atlanta Hartsfield International Airport.

Al Wright began flying in the 1940's. He was involved with various aviation endeavors including: Nenana Air Service, Fort Yukon Air, and Wien Airlines. Al was also a registered Big Game Guide. He began Wright Air Service in Fairbanks in 1966, servicing Interior Alaska with a Cessna 180 and a Piper PA-14. The majority of the flights were made on floats in the summer and on skis in the winter. The tradition of Al Wright's excellent flight history has earned him the dedication of Minto Airport.

Bob Bursiel, current owner, began flying for Wright Air Service in 1968. Shortly after that, a few more aircraft were added to the Wright Air fleet. A Cessna 206 and a Twin Aero Commander 680 were acquired in 1969; and in the 1970's, the company added Helio Couriers, Piper Aztecs and Navajos. They used the Helio Couriers for short fields and game surveys, and the twin engine aircraft were utilized in support of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline construction. Along with Bob, several other pilots and employees have been with the company since the 60's and 70's as well.

Shortly thereafter, the company began scheduled service in 1986 from Fairbanks to villages in Northern Interior Alaska, carrying passengers, mail and freight.

Today, the company is operating 8 Grand Caravans, 3 Navajos, 3 Helio Couriers, 2 Cessna 206's and a Beechcraft Bonanza.
