NAPLES AIRLINES

Naples was the Florida division of Provincetown - Boston Airline, or PBA. The airline began flights in 1960 as a way to balance the seasonal nature of Provincetown - Boston's operations. Florida traffic was heavy during the winter months while traffic in Cape Cod was heavy during the summer. In 1980, Naples and Provincetown - Boston became known simply as PBA.
