Great North Airlines is proud to announce that DASH 8-300 Serial 578 has been onboarded and is now commercially available from our Kitchener, Ontario base.
Tail 301 joins the Great North fleet ready to support what is already shaping up to be one of our busiest summers on record.
A Summer Anchored in Mission
This season is anchored in federal and provincial government program support — spanning non-essential, essential, and emergency response operations.
Woven into this year's preparations is supporting government and commercial operations through FIFA World Cup 2026 in both Vancouver and Toronto, adding a meaningful layer of complexity to an already full summer lineup.
Ad Hoc Charter Capacity Available
Ad hoc charter capacity is always available when our schedule permits. If you have a requirement this summer, reach out now.
Growing the Team
We are hiring and training additional crew and support staff while continuing to build the infrastructure to match the scale, complexity and variety of our mission. See our current openings if you want to fly, dispatch, or wrench on aircraft that matter.
Tail 301 is the same airframe announced in our November 2025 lease-purchase agreement with Avmax Group. From MRO in Calgary to commercial service in Kitchener in under five months — thank you to every team member, partner, and supplier who made this onboarding possible.
Welcome aboard, Tail 301.
