About Us

Interested in getting to know us better? You’ve come to the right place. A lot has changed since we started flying B.C’s coast back in 1982. We’ve grown from a two seaplane airline servicing the forestry industry to one of the world’s largest all-seaplane airlines in the world. Throughout the company’s growth and memorable milestones, what hasn’t changed is our commitment to safety, team spirit, innovation and service. We’re here to share a little bit about what makes Harbour Air unique and some of the accolades we’ve earned along the way.
