context_section_description: Casino Express quickly expanded its customer base to include sports teams, government agencies, foreign dignitaries, press corps, other gaming properties, and other types of public and private charters. It changed its name to Xtra Airways on December 8, 2005, to better reflect its broader focus. The airline moved its headquarters in June 2010 to Boise, Idaho.
  
  Xtra Airways changed its livery in 2015 to an executive jet style, displaying flag blue and red stripes consistent with its status as a US-flag air carrier.
  In September 2016, it began operating a Boeing 737-800 (N881XA), repainted in a sky-blue and white livery with "Stronger Together" titles, for the Hillary Clinton 2016 presidential campaign. Soon afterward a second aircraft, Boeing 737-400 (N314XA), was also pressed into service for the campaign, painted with a sky-blue cheatline and "Clinton/Kaine" titles.
