Heading out for a week of fly-in fishing? Need to charter a floatplane to get your team to a remote lodge or job site? Whether you’re flying for business, leisure, or a sightseeing tour, River Air delivers dependable air charter service in true Canadian bush plane style. Our experienced team and well-maintained aircraft ensure a safe, comfortable journey — no matter how far off the grid you’re headed.

River Air operates two strategically located bases in Northwestern Ontario — our main seaplane base in Kenora, and a secondary base in Minaki offering both floatplane and runway operations. Based in the heart of Lake of the Woods country, we provide access to a region where floatplane travel is often the preferred — and sometimes only — way to go. At River Air, we make it easy to reach even the most remote destinations across Ontario’s wilderness and beyond.

River Air’s charter service - your gateway to the wilderness of Northwestern Ontario, Canada

We are your gateway to the untamed wilderness of Northwestern Ontario.

With sprawling lakes, endless forests, and thriving natural industries — from mining and hydroelectric to forestry and tourism — this region is as remote as it is remarkable. With much of the region only accessible by air, River Air’s charter service brings you closer to the wild beauty of Lake of the Woods.

Need a ride? We can fly you there.

Fly in comfort aboard our de Havilland Otter with a turbine engine (seats up to 9 passengers with gear), or choose one of our classic de Havilland Beavers or the Cessna 185 seaplanes for smaller groups. Our versatile Cessna 208 (seats up to 8 passengers and gear) with amphibious floats and retractable wheels makes airport landing-strip pickups and water drop-offs a breeze.
