The region
incorporating The Islands, Vancouver Coast & Mountains, Thompson Okanagan,
BC Rockies, Cariboo Country and Northern B.C. includes terrain that
is remote and isolated, with no access by road. Many of these great
outdoor locations can only be reached by landing a floatplane on a
nearby lake or ocean inlet. The above services can get you to these
fantasy destinations - what you do when you get there is limited only
by your time and imagination!
Most
destinations in British Columbia can be accessed domestically by
Westjet and Air Canada. In addition to major airline connections,
a number of regional airlines provide scheduled and charter flights
by float plane, helijet and helicopter between the BC mainland,
Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands, and Washington State.
Flights
arrive daily at Victoria International Airport from Vancouver and
Seattle. Victoria International Airport is Vancouver Island's largest
airport and is located near Sidney, a 30-minute drive from downtown
Victoria. Other island communities with airports served by major
airlines are Courtenay/Comox, Campbell River and Port Hardy. Air
service between mainland BC, Washington State, and Vancouver Island
is frequent and extensive.
Major
airlines offer frequent, scheduled flights to Nanaimo Airport from
Vancouver and Seattle. Nanaimo Airport is located 15 minutes south
of the downtown area and serves flights daily between Nanaimo and
Vancouver, Abbotsford, and Langley. Airport shuttle services, taxis
and car rental agencies are available from the airports.
One
can travel in true island style by harbour seaplane or helicopter
- downtown Vancouver to downtown Victoria, but the real adventure
begins by soaring high in a chartered floatplane and splashing down
on an isolated inlet or far-flung wilderness lake in remote British
Columbia.
