NectAir: What is NectAir?

NectAir vs. commercial

Get your day back before you even take off.

Flying commercial from Toronto Pearson, you’re asked to arrive 2 hours before a flight within Canada. With NectAir, you arrive 10 minutes before you fly.

Source: Toronto Pearson’s travel advice, September 2026 (2 hours for flights within Canada; 3 for the U.S. and international).

With NectAir, you skip all of this. Your day goes like this.

  1. You skip: Check-in counters and bag drop. Instead: Walk into a private terminal.
  2. You skip: Security lines. Instead: Your pilot meets you.
  3. You skip: The crowd at the gate. Instead: Walk a few steps to your plane.
  4. You skip: The middle seat. Instead: The whole plane is yours.
  5. You skip: Connections and layovers. Instead: Fly direct, from the airport closest to you.
  6. You skip: The airline’s departure times. Instead: Fly at the time you choose.

  2. Hi Claire, of course. She can ride in the cabin with you.
  3. Oh good. Golf clubs okay too?
  4. Yes, there’s room on the PC‑12.
  5. Perfect. What time should we get there?
  6. 10 minutes before you fly is plenty. Enjoy the golf.

“…super responsive, understanding, and able to pivot quickly when there is a change in plans… Also, the detailed itinerary emailed before the flight is super helpful.”

Fleet & safety

We fly a fleet of Pilatus PC‑12 and Piper M600/M700 turboprops.

5 aircraft, 2 types
  • A Pilatus PC‑12, side view

    Pilatus PC‑12

The propeller question

It’s called a turboprop. That’s a jet engine with a propeller.

Don’t let the propeller fool you: these are multi-million-dollar aircraft powered by jet-grade turbine technology, not small piston planes.

    Every aircraft in our fleet runs on a Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6, the engine family behind more than 500 million flight hours.

  • “First class and easy from first contact all the way through our flights. What would have been two 12‑hour days of commercial flights turned into less‑than‑3‑hour effortless trips. The flight crew were excellent. I highly recommend NectAir, their team and their service.”
    Five stars. David L. · July 2026
  • “NectAir took a multi‑day trip and condensed it down into a single day — something that would be impossible with traditional travel. The flight was smooth and on time, and the captain genuinely cared about each passenger. I will absolutely be flying with NectAir again.”
