Pacific Coastal Airlines

Pacific Coastal Airlines is a commercial airline in British Columbia offering scheduled domestic services as well as domestic and continental charter flights.

Pacific Coastal Airlines serves nineteen destinations (eighteen domestic, one continental) in two countries with scheduled flights.

= History = Pacific Coastal Airlines was established in 1946; it absorbed Haida Air Charter in 1981. It began its first scheduled flight to the United States, between Victoria and Bellingham, Washington, in 1993, entering into its first codesharing agreement with Horizon Air and Alaska Airlines at that time. A second such agreement was made with Kootenay Airways in 2003, making travel between the Coast and eastern Interior easier and more convenient for passengers.

In 1966 Pacific Coastal Airlines became the launch customer for the De Havilland BC DHBC-6 Twin Otter.
