America West Airlines began service as a regional carrier in Phoenix, Arizona, in 1983. It grew steadily for eight years, endured three years of Chapter 11 bankruptcy (1991-94), then reemerged as a viable nationwide force in the airline industry. The company focused on a strategy of discount prices and alliances with other airlines. The company served 91 destinations, including eight internationally. Some destinations were served through "codesharing" agreements with other airlines. By 1996, America West ranked ninth in revenue among U.S. passenger airlines. ?
