Miner’s Express Closes for Winter

Northern Thunderbird Air is announcing suspension of our Miner's Express service from Smithers/Terrace to Bob Quinn/Dease Lake effective Friday, December 23, 2011 (last flight).  Lower than anticipated winter demand for this service has made this decision necessary.  The service will resume no later than April 30, 2012 but if demand is there we are prepared to begin sooner.  In the meantime, charter aircraft are available in Smithers, Prince George and Vancouver.  Please call 1-800-963-9611 for pricing and availability.

NT Air would like to thank our clients who have supported us over the last season and we look forward to seeing you again in the spring.
