Seair announces new seaplane service to Victoria
Seair Seaplanes is set to launch a new scheduled seaplane service to Victoria. Flights begin Oct. 20 connecting Downtown Vancouver to the Inner Harbour.
“The Chamber strongly supports business growth, and we applaud the investments in infrastructure being made to bring Seair service to the Inner Harbour,” said Christina Clarke, Chair of the Greater Victoria Chamber of Commerce. “There is so much opportunity for growth in the tourism sector, which sustains so many businesses in Greater Victoria. This new option benefits visitors to our destination as well as many people who can use this service for business travel.”
Flights will arrive and depart from Seair’s new terminal at 1234 Wharf Street. Seair will primarily use Cessna 208 Caravan turboprop seaplanes, known as dependable and comfortable nine-passenger aircraft.
Seair Seaplanes began in 1982 and is headquartered at YVR’s South Terminal. Seair also operates from Vancouver’s Convention Centre and the Nanaimo waterfront.
