Sunwest Aviation us revealed plans to launch global jet operations, expanding from domestic and regional services with Transport Canada approvals for international flights.
The Calgary-based operator, founded in 1986, maintains a fleet of 30 aircraft including 15 jets like Challenger 300/3500, Challenger 604/605, Learjet 45, Dassault Falcon 7X, and Gulfstream G650ER for transatlantic and transpacific routes.
Sunwest acquired Toronto-based Jet-Share Canada in February 2025, integrating a Cessna Citation XLS certified under its CAR 704 licence on 29 April 2025 for eastern Canada charters from April 2025.
The ARGUS Platinum and IS-BAO Stage 3 certified programme supports charter, membership, and aeromedical services, including the HOPE programme for organ transport.
Recent Learjet 45 refurbishments in 2024 and 2025 prepare the fleet, with 24/7 support from Calgary bases in Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Vancouver, and Toronto.
