“The resumption of three-times weekly service out of Kamloops to Prince George will offer passengers convenient one-stop connections to and from Terrace, Fort St. John, and Fort Nelson,” CMA explained.

“A weekly Kamloops to Vancouver flight will be added on Thursdays as well.”

The Fort St. John–Prince George route – operated twice a week – will also offer connections from Fort St. John to Kelowna, Kamloops and Edmonton.

“Central Mountain Air continues to adapt to the realities of COVID-19,” said Michael Claeren, CMA’s commercial chief.

“We’re working hard to support BC Interior and Northern communities with sustainable air travel options while adhering to governmental guidelines and COVID-19 protocols to keep everyone safe.”
