Introducing Tahltan-Pacific – TNDC’s newest joint venture

Tahltan Nation Development Corporation is excited to introduce its newest partnership – Tahltan-Pacific, which offers charter flights into Tahltan territory to serve the burgeoning resource sector in northwestern BC. Tahltan-Pacific is a joint venture with Pacific Coastal Airlines, a British Columbia-based airline that has been providing scheduled and charter airplane service to communities throughout the province for over 40 years.

With the number of existing and proposed resource development projects in the region steadily growing, having quick, easy and reliable access to the region is becoming increasingly important. Dease Lake with its existing airport is a convenient and central hub, which can save companies valuable time and dollars. TNDC’s new partnership with Pacific Coastal Airlines will help to serve this niche market.

Pacific Coastal Airlines and its charter business can accommodate the specialized needs of the resource sector. Its fleet of aircraft and its experienced pilots have the capability and expertise to serve remote communities like Dease Lake year round. www.pacific-coastal.com
