history

De Havilland Canada DHC-8-102

Air Nova was founded in July 1986 with two De Havilland Canada DHC-8 aircraft for air services to five destinations in the Canadian part of the Atlantic. Additional DHC-8s were acquired as the airline became successful with British Aerospace deploying 146 jets on routes opened in Canada and the United States. In spring 1999 Air Alliance and Air Nova were consolidated under the name Air Nova. Following the consolidation of the Air Alliance, Air Nova served 28 destinations across eastern Canada and the United States.

Air Nova was a wholly owned subsidiary of Air Canada .
