Vancouver-Seattle service returns April 13; new Victoria-Seattle, Ucluelet and Campbell River routes mark airline’s most ambitious summer schedule to date
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA, March 25, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Harbour Air, British Columbia’s leading coastal airline, announced its largest seasonal expansion ever, featuring the return of Vancouver-Seattle service beginning April 13, 2026, along with three new routes including the airline’s first Victoria-Seattle service.
The expansion delivers on strong demand across the Pacific Northwest, adding new connections to communities like Ucluelet — named one of Expedia’s 2026 Destinations of the Year — and Campbell River, a gateway to world-class fishing and wilderness adventures. For the first time, Vancouver Island travellers will have direct cross-border seaplane service without routing through Vancouver.
“This is our biggest seasonal expansion yet, and it reflects what we’re hearing from our guests and communities,” said Chris Fordyce, Chief Commercial Officer, Harbour Air. “The Vancouver-Seattle route has been one of our strongest seasonal services, and we’re thrilled to bring it back. We’re also launching three new routes this summer, including our first Victoria-Seattle service, new flights to Ucluelet, and new flights to Campbell River. These additions strengthen our network and give coastal B.C. travellers more ways to explore the region and beyond.”
Vancouver-Seattle: Downtown to Downtown in One Hour
The Vancouver-Seattle route returns April 13 with twice-daily departures, connecting Coal Harbour in downtown Vancouver with Lake Union in Seattle in approximately one hour. One-way fares start from $149, offering a fast alternative to driving, ferry connections and traditional airport travel. The route has operated as a seasonal spring and summer service since 2018.
Victoria-Seattle: New Direct Cross-Border Service
New this summer, the inaugural Victoria-Seattle service launches June 11, connecting Victoria’s Inner Harbour with Lake Union in Seattle in under an hour. The route offers Vancouver Island travellers a convenient non-stop link to Seattle, simplifying cross-border travel. One-way fares start from $149 with one daily departure.
New Routes to Ucluelet and Campbell River
The summer expansion also includes new service to Ucluelet beginning June 25, followed by Campbell River on July 6. Named one of Expedia’s 2026 Destinations of the Year, Ucluelet offers direct access to old-growth rainforest trails, the Wild Pacific Trail and dramatic coastlines. Service begins with once-daily flights from Vancouver, with one-way fares starting from $209.
The new Campbell River service serves as a gateway to some of British Columbia’s most celebrated wilderness, drawing national and international travellers for salmon fishing, backcountry adventures and whale watching. Once-daily service begins July 6, with one-way fares starting from $139.
