Canadian North's afternoon Ottawa-Iqaluit codeshare flights return

Canadian North is once again offering afternoon flights on its Ottawa-Iqaluit routeas part of its codeshare agreement with First Air, after dropping them in the fall.

Afternoon flights began in the summer as part of a number of codeshare schedule changes. Then the airline switched its flights back to the old schedule at the end of August.

The afternoon flights will begin again on Jan.11.

Kelly Lewis,Canadian North's communications manager, says customers who have already booked flights can call if they want to change their flight times.

"We don't want to mess with anybody's connections they might have already, so rather than moving everybody to the afternoon flight that had existing bookings, we're going to re-accommodate them closest to their existing flight times."

The northbound flight will leave Ottawa at 12:45 p.m. and arrivein Iqaluit at 3:59 p.m.The southbound flight departs Iqaluit at 5:15 p.m. and arrives in Ottawa at 8:25 p.m.
