Seair or Harbour Air?

[5x5]

Going to make a flight from YVR to Nanaimo in the near future and just wondering which company would be the least hassle. Haven't used either before so just looking for any suggestions/experiences. Probably not a big difference between them, but figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.

BC Ferries is the least hassle if you need a car on the other end.

Since they are now one and he same it doesn't really matter. Between the two find the departure/arrival time that works the best for you.

These companies are not one and the same. If it is the same price Seair has five days free parking both sides, new aircraft and an owner that you will see working the dock on a holiday monday.

Harbour Air everytime! Great employees, always smiling and willing to help out! Plus you get to fly in Canadian machines, Good 'ol -3Ts!

I can't say enough good things about HA/WCA! Plus, from what I understand, is that they'll match Seair's fare if it is lower!

Seair every time. No doubt about it. Thoughtfull and helpfull folks working there and a convienient schedule.

HA goes to the downtown core of Nanaimo whereas Seair goes to Departure Bay where the ferries dock.
