North Star Air ready to add Kenora flight service
North Star Air is ready to start it’s new service from Kenora to Thunder Bay in the new year.
Jeff Stout is Chief Operating Officer and president of North Star and says they are ready to offer this new service between the two cities.
“Like, we’re all in on it…we’re extremely excited,” Stout said just after a ribbon cutting ceremony at the Kenora Airport.
“We think that five flights a week is just the start. Obviously, we need to be reliable and there needs to be support for the service from Kenora, and Thunder Bay and elsewhere. But I think that’s all going to come into place.”
Stout says if it’s successful, they will be able to offer more flight options.
“Success is measured in providing a good service and that’s us as an airline. We’ve got to be on time; we’ve got to fulfill our commitment to the customer. The other success is, it does need to make money, right?”
Stout says they will be using a 9 seat Pilatus aircraft and fly right to the air terminal in Thunder Bay.
