The airline was initially founded in 2013 as ATX Air Services and operated under an Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Part 125 certificate, limiting the airline to only flying under long-term agreements with few clients.[2]

ATX Air Services rebranded as Hillwood Airways in 2016,[3] received its FAA Part 121 Air Carrier Certification on July 24, 2017, and subsequently started charter operations.[4]

The airline commenced operations with a single Boeing 737-700C BBJ and currently offers it for charter in four configurations: 36 first class seats with two conference tables, 60 first class seats, 90 premium economy seats or as a full freighter. It is one of only few Boeing 737 BBJs fitted with a full-size main-deck cargo door.[5]

Between 2019 and 2021 the airline took delivery of three regular Boeing 737-700s that were originally delivered to Airtran Airways and ConocoPhillips Alaska.[6] The three regulars 737-700s are available for charter in all-passenger configurations ranging from 60 first class to 100 premium economy seats.[5]

One the airline's Boeing 737-700s was involved in the 2021 Kabul airlift.[7]
