  • De Havilland Dash 8-400
  • De Havilland Dash 8-Q300

CemAir also leases aircraft and offer charter services to remote locations. ‘CemAir offers humanitarian organisations and resource companies a transport solution in these difficult environments that allows them to get their work done safely and quickly. Our goal is to be the service provider of choice for organisations that require the highest levels of quality and service,’ the airline says.

The airline expanded its reach during lockdown when it operated a number of repatriation flights. It was one of the first airlines to resume operations after the ban on interprovincial travel was lifted.
