About Air Labrador

Labrador Airways Limited, better known as Air Labrador, was a regional carrier based around Goose Bay, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. The airline operated daily passenger and freight services throughout Quebec, as well as charter operations with the options of landing in remote and off strip destinations with skis, wheels and floats. Its main base was Goose Bay Airport and Its motto was "The Spirit of Flight".

The airline commenced operations in 1948, as Newfoundland Airways. One of the things Air Labrador was best known for was conducting a fantasy flight in the 1990s. Around Christmas they got Father Christmas to board the plane while it taxied the tarmac! In March 2009, the company announced they were ceasing flight service to Montreal due to financial trouble. In June 2017 Air Labrador merged with Innu Mikun Airlines to form Air Borealis.

This was my first booking and I used Alternative Airlines twice on this trip. I must say by far the best online booking experience ever.

So easy to use and the payment options are very helpful when you need to book a ticket and you may not have the full amount at the moment. Really recommend Alternative Airlines to my clients and friends.

What a great way to be able to see my family back in South Africa. This is made possible since we can buy our tickets and pay it off over 4 months. With the price of flight tickets so high Alternative Airlines has been a literal lifesaver!
