Central Mountain Air is restoring its direct flight between Kamloops and Prince George, starting April 5.

It says the resumption of the thrice weekly flight – which was on hiatus as of Feb. 3 – will give passengers a convenient one-stop connection to and from Terrace, Fort St. John, and Fort Nelson.

The Smithers-based airline says it is also adding a weekly Kamloops to Vancouver flight on Thursday’s as well.

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

“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.”
