New expanded routes to Kelowna, Yellowknife and Ottawa are now in operation.
 Air North has been in operation since 1977. They provide scheduled and charter passenger and freight service from their base in Whitehorse, Yukon, to points in the Yukon, Northwest Territories, Alaska, British Columbia, Alberta, and other surrounding areas. Scheduled service points are Old Crow, Whitehorse, Dawson City, Inuvik, Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver, Fairbanks, Kelowna, Yellowknife, and Ottawa. They provide charter service to anywhere in North America. They also provide airline support services in Whitehorse and are currently or have in the past provided such services to First Air, Royal Airlines, Canada 3000 and Air Transat. |
Air North presently operates six Boeing 737 aircraft and five HS748 aircraft. The HS748 will carry a maximum of 40 passengers or approximately 10,000 pounds of cargo. Due to the large cargo volumes on their scheduled service they generally operate in 20-32 passenger combi configuration. This provides adequate passenger and freight capacity on most scheduled flights. The HS748 is a pressurized turboprop aircraft which cruises at about 250 mph. In combi configuration it provides passenger seating in the rear with cargo up front. The cargo door measures 4' x 4'6”. Runway requirements are 3500'-5000' for the HS748.

Airnorth President Joe Sparling stated, "Being an isolated community with no road access, Old Crow generates substantial freight volumes in the form of groceries, mail, furniture, consumer items and building materials and it is this air freight which provides the impetus for large aircraft service six days per week on our north scheduled service".
