A new addition to Air North's fleet
On July 25, 2024, the newest addition to Air North, Yukon Airline’s fleet, a Boeing 737-800, departed Whitehorse on its inaugural flight.
The new aircraft offers up to 174 passengers a spacious new cabin with an average 32-inch seat pitch, roomy and easy to access overhead bins, and state-of-the-art LED lighting that creates an inviting atmosphere. And, of course, there are ovens aboard so that the airline can offer its famous warm cookies.
Newer engine technology and a refined wing design make for a quieter cabin and offer significant improvements in fuel efficiency, allowing Air North to take a big step in reducing emissions associated with air travel.
Air North anticipates its second Boeing 737-800 will enter into service this fall.
