Airlines gradually increasing flight service out of Kamloops Airport
KAMLOOPS — The sky above Kamloops will start to get a little busier this week, as airlines begin to increase their flight frequencies for YKA.
After a halt in operations at the height of the pandemic, Air Canada resumed service from Kamloops to Vancouver on Monday. Kamloops Airport Managing Director Ed Ratuski says that will increase throughout the summer.
“Right now it’s five times a week and then in July they’ll be going to twice a day, seven days a week. And WestJet is doubling their frequency at the beginning of July as well,” says Ratuski. “And then we’ll also see the return of Central Mountain Air to serve northern B.C from Kamloops the first week of July.”
