Die Reno Air setzte ab April 1996 das Muster MD-90 ein und insgesamt kamen fünf Exemplare zur Auslieferung. Reno Air war nach Delta Air Lines der zweite Betreiber der MD-90 in den USA.

Sinnvolle Ergänzung der MD-80-Flotte

Dieser Flugzeugtyp ergänzte primär die MD-82/-83-/-87-Flotte, ermöglichte der Reno Air aber auch, einige angemietete MD-82 zu retournieren. Die extrem geräuscharmen MD-90 wurden besonders von lärmsensitiven Flughäfen eingesetzt und boten gegenüber den MD-82/-83 eine moderate Kapazitätserhöhung. Obwohl auch Reno Air in der Einführungsphase Probleme mit der MD-90 hatte, so sollte sich die MD-90 später zu einem sehr zuverlässigen Muster entwickelt haben. Mehrere Quellen besagen, dass die MD-90 bei Crews äußerst populär war. Piloten wie Flugbegleiter schätzen die MD-90 überaus als Arbeitsplatz.

Lärmarmut ab Orange County

Die MD-90 übernahmen innerhalb einer recht kurzen Zeit sämtliche Operationen ab Orange County, da Reno Air von der Lärmarmut der MD-90 profitieren konnte. Reno Air wurde später mehr oder weniger ein Opfer ihres eigenen Erfolges und wurde von American Airlines übernommen.
