Bearskin Airlines began in 1963 by providing charter services to the remote First Nations reserves in northern Ontario, using bush planes equipped with floats in the summer and skis in the winter. Today at Dryden Airport regular passenger services turn to Bearskin Airlines for everything from flights and baggage handling to chartered flights by anyone who requires it. We see a lot of cross-country flights from aircraft of all sizes.” “The goal for the Dryden Airport is to increase scheduled passenger traffic as we were before COVID,” Abdullah Al- Maltrook, Marketing & Communications Manager at Loomex states. “Airports enable economic growth in cities, so we know a strong airport means a strong local economy”. With world-wide concerns for the economy, we want to ensure the airport is known for contributing to the community.”
