Northern Pacific Airways is launching its first-ever flights from Ontario, California, to Las Vegas on June 2. The carrier will use a 181-seater Boeing 757 with both economy and business class on the one-hour flights. The odd starting route is a far leap from the airline's original plan of flying from the US to Asia via Alaska. Low-cost startup Northern Pacific Airways is finally launching flights this June — but it's a far cry from the long-haul business model it started with. The Anchorage-based airline announced on Tuesday that it will launch its first-ever commercial flight on June 2, flying once weekly between Ontario, California — just outside of Los Angeles — and Las Vegas.
