'''Trump Shuttle, Inc.''' was an airline owned by [[Donald Trump]] from 1989 to 1992. The landing rights and some of the physical assets necessary to operate the [[air shuttle|shuttle flights]] were originally part of [[Eastern Air Lines]] and known as the [[Eastern Air Lines Shuttle]]. It operated hourly flights on [[Boeing 727]] aircraft from [[LaGuardia Airport]] in [[New York City]] to [[Boston Logan International Airport]] in [[Boston, Massachusetts]] and [[Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport]] in [[Washington, D.C.]], as well as charter service to other destinations. Its [[IATA]] designator code was TB (later reassigned to Jetairfly, which became [[TUI fly Belgium]]).<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.al-airliners.be/codes/codes-alpha-19.htm|title=Codes IATA/OACI by airline|publisher=www.al-airliners.be|access-date=2017-08-21}}</ref>

Trump's formal launch in the air business occurred in March 1988 when he acquired three [[Sikorsky S-61]] helicopters that belonged to Resorts International Airlines (RIA) used to shuttle high rollers to the [[Resorts Casino Hotel]] in [[Atlantic City, New Jersey]].<ref name=TrumpAirDailyRecord>{{cite news |url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/31464398/daily-record-morristown-nj-1998-03-24/ |title=Helicopter Service Shuttles Gamblers to Casinos |work=[[Daily Record (Morristown)|Daily Record]] |location=[[Morristown, New Jersey]] |page=26 (B10) |agency=[[Associated Press]] |date=March 24, 1988 |access-date=November 14, 2020 |archive-date=November 15, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201115022325/https://www.newspapers.com/clip/31464398/daily-record-morristown-nj-1998-03-24/ |url-status=bot: unknown }}</ref>  The three green and orange helicopters were repainted black and red and emblazoned with the Trump Air logo.<ref>{{cite news |last=Chadwick |first=Bruce |url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/31464697/new_york_daily_news_19880327/ |title=Atlantic City Confidential |work=[[New York Daily News|Daily News]] |location=[[New York City]] |page=313 (24) |date=March 27, 1988 |access-date=November 14, 2020 |archive-date=June 7, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190607023252/https://www.newspapers.com/clip/31464697/new_york_daily_news_19880327/ |url-status=bot: unknown }}</ref>
