Eventually, the airline would have hubs at Edmonton, Winnipeg, Montreal and Kuujjuaq also. At Kuujjuaq, the airline provided vital services to the Inuit community, covering 16 Inuit cities with its partnership with Air Inuit. First Air eventually started serving cities with jet aircraft, using Boeing 727 and 737 airplanes. In addition to its jets, the airline still operates smaller, turbo-prop aircraft to access small communities. First Air is a privately owned airline that operates mainly in Northern Canada.
