3.1.2 Scheduled and Charter Traffic<br />

Scheduled, charter, air passenger and cargo<br />

transportation account for the majority of air<br />

services at <strong>EIA</strong>. As of 2010, 15 scheduled airlines<br />

and seven major charter operators serve <strong>Edmonton</strong><br />

<strong>International</strong> <strong>Airport</strong>, providing non-stop service<br />

to 28 destinations in Canada, 11 destinations in the<br />

United States and 15 international destinations.<br />

Charter operations using commercial passenger<br />

jets such as Boeing 737 or larger, bound for<br />

international and transborder destinations,<br />

generally operate seasonally. The majority of<br />

these connections are made in the winter charter<br />

season, taking passengers to various southern US and<br />

Caribbean destinations (Exhibit 3.2).<br />

As Canada’s prime gateway to the north, <strong>EIA</strong><br />

regularly serves 11 northern communities and<br />

is growing as a regional hub. As the preferred<br />

gateway serving Canada’s energy industry, <strong>EIA</strong><br />

supports northern business partners and their<br />

communities in the development of resources such<br />

as oil (both conventional and oil sands) and a host<br />

of other commodities including diamonds, gold,<br />

uranium.<br />

Twenty-two scheduled and charter air carriers<br />

serve <strong>Edmonton</strong> <strong>International</strong> <strong>Airport</strong>, providing<br />

services which link the airport with major Canadian,<br />

US and international destinations. Three national<br />

carriers – Air Canada, Westjet and Air Canada Jazz,<br />

along with regional domestic carriers Air North,<br />

Canadian North, First Air and Central Mountain<br />

Air, and charter carriers provide services to link<br />

<strong>Edmonton</strong> with key destinations in Canada and the<br />

US. In addition, charter carriers such as Air Transat,<br />

Canjet, Sunwing, Enerjet, Swanberg Air, Integra Air,<br />

and Northwestern Air Lease provide charter flights<br />

to Northern Alberta communities and Caribbean<br />

sunspots. Transborder air carriers link the airport<br />

with major hub cities in the US including Alaska<br />

Airlines, Continental Airlines, Delta Airlines, Horizon<br />

Air, United Express and US Airways. London –<br />

Heathrow is served by an Air Canada Boeing<br />

767-300ER.<br />
