Iqaluit – Kuujjuaq route back on the schedule for Canadian North

The 100% Inuit-owned airline that connects people and delivers essential goods throughout Canada’s North has reintroduced direct service Iqaluit, Kuujjuaq, and Montreal.

“We are thrilled to re-introduce these flights that we have not been able to operate over the last two years due to COVID. Now that restrictions are easing throughout Canada and the North, re-introducing the Iqaluit to Kuujjuaq to Montreal flight route will allow easier travel to see family, and friends that we so desperately need. Thank you to our customers for their patience during this unprecedented time and we welcome you aboard once again.” Andrew Pope, Vice President, Customer & Commercial.

Public Health Authorities recently announced that most COVID-related flight restrictions for Nunavut and Nunavik will lift in the next few weeks, allowing Canadian North to be able to re-introduce an important flight route connecting these two regions of Inuit Nunangat. The route reopens on 14th April 2022 and is scheduled to operate twice a week on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Canadian North has scheduled a Boeing 737-400 initially to the route.

Canadian North Airlines services 25 communities within the Northwest Territories, Nunavik and Nunavut, as well as Ottawa, Montreal, Edmonton – and now Toronto – with a versatile fleet of Boeing 737 and ATR 42 aircraft. Canadian North is also the premier charter services provider for large resource sector clients requiring dependable, efficient and economical fly-in/fly-out air service and it operates flights across North America and beyond for sports teams, cruise lines, tour operators and many others. Canadian North is wholly owned by Makivik Corporation and Inuvialuit Development Corporation.
