History

Air Nova was established in July 1986 with two DHC Dash 8-100 aircraft flying services to five destinations in Atlantic Canada. Further Dash 8s were acquired as the airline became successful and BAe 146 jets were introduced as routes opened up in Canada and the USA. In the spring of 1999 Air Alliance and Air Nova consolidated under the Air Nova name.
