I rere te kamupene rererangi i tana ratonga whakatuwhera i waenga i Anchorage me Bristol Bay me te Stinson kotahi-engine, e toru nga kaihihi rererangi. I taua wa, kaore he rerenga kua whakaritea; he rerenga i puta i te wa e whai ana nga kaihihi, he kawenga uta ranei. I waenganui o te Pakaru Nui, kei te raru te kamupene rererangi. He nui rawa ngā kamupene rererangi i Anchorage i taua wā, ā, kāore i nui te hiahia ki te tautoko i a rātou. I roto i nga tau e whai ake nei, he maha nga whakakotahitanga me nga hoko i mahia e te kamupene rererangi i puta ai nga whakarereketanga o te ingoa ka kite i te pakihi e whanui ana puta noa i Alaska. Ko te tuatahi o enei whakakotahitanga i te 1934, i te wa i hokona ai e McGee tana kamupene rererangi ingoa mo te US $ 50,000 ki Star Air Service, he kamupene rererangi kei Anchorage hoki.

I te 1938, ka tiimata te ture a-rohe i te wa i hangaia ai e te Kaunihera te Poari Taiao Taiao (CAB). Ko te CAB i whakawhiwhia ki te kamupene rererangi te nuinga o nga huarahi e hiahia ana ki Alaska, engari ko te huarahi e hiahia ana i waenga i Seattle me Anchorage i whakawhiwhia ki a Pan American Airways.I te 1941, i hokona a Star Air Service e Raymond Marshall, he kaipakihi mai i New York. I te 1942, i hokona e te kamupene rererangi etahi atu kamupene rererangi e toru i Alaska, Lavery Air Service, Mirow Air Service, me Pollack Flying Service tae atu ki te hangar i te taunga rererangi o Anchorage. I taua tau, i hurihia te ingoa o te kamupene rererangi ki Alaska Star Airlines. I whakaaetia te ingoa Alaska Airlines i te Mei 2, 1944, i muri i te whiu iti i te kaiwhakataetae i...
