In 1932 Arthur G. Woodley founded Woodley Airways flying routes across Alaska. In 1945, Woodley changed the name to Pacific Northern Airways and moved the company headquarters to Seattle. In 1951, Pacific Northern Airways was able to start running regular flights between Seattle and Anchorage, and continued to operate these and its routes within Alaska until it was taken over by Western Airlines in 1967. Western Airlines continued to offer flights under the Pacific Northern Airlines branding through the early 1970s.
