COVID-19 Update: Potential Exposure

WHITEHORSE, YT - 31 March 2020

 

Throughout this rapidly changing situation, safety remains the number one priority for Air North, Yukon's Airline. It has come to our attention that a passenger that recently flew with us later developed symptoms and subsequently tested positive for COVID-19.

Date Flight Number Routing Affected Row
14 March 2020 4N2570 Vancouver - Whitehorse 4 - 10

Passengers in the affected rows were considered to be at low risk. The 14-day symptom monitoring and self-isolation period has now passed. The Government of Yukon requires all international and domestic travellers arriving in the Yukon to self-isolate for 14 days and diligently monitor themselves for symptoms.

In order to keep our community safe, we support physical-distancing and self-isolation measures, and encourage Yukoners to do their part to continue to flatten the curve.
