The airline initially used smaller piston and turboprop aircraft such as the Douglas DC-7 and the Lockheed L-188 Electra. At Ports of Call grew, jet aircraft such as the Convair 990, Boeing 707, and Boeing 727 were acquired on the second-hand market. In 1986, Denver Ports of Call was rebranded as Skyworld Airlines. This name change was short-lived and the name reverted to Ports-of-Call in 1988. However, Ports of Call ceased operations the following year.
