Harbour Air adds daily Victoria-Seattle seaplane service

Harbour Air launched a new daily summer seaplane route between Victoria Inner Harbour Airport and Seattle on June 11, 2026. The 30-minute cross-border service starts at C$99 one way and expands travel, business and tourism links across the Pacific Northwest.

Why it matters: - The new Victoria-Seattle route gives travelers a faster cross-border option between two major Pacific Northwest markets. - The service is positioned to support leisure travel, family visits, business trips, trade and investment. - Harbour Air is extending its Seattle network beyond Vancouver and adding another direct option from Victoria.

What happened: - Harbour Air celebrated its first flight from Victoria Inner Harbour Airport to Seattle on June 11, 2026. - The seaplane service runs daily during the summer season. - Introductory fares start at C$99 one way. - The route operates from June 11, 2026, to September 30, 2026. - The flight time is about 30 minutes.

The details: - The introductory fare offer is limited in quantity. - Travelers must book by June 18, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. PT, or while seats last. - The promotional fares apply to travel between June 25 and September 30, 2026. - Aeroplan members earn points on Harbour Air flights with eligible fares, including cross-border routes. - Eligible travelers can earn up to 200 Aeroplan points per flight, depending on fare class. - Harbour Air also operates a double-daily Vancouver-Seattle route. - Harbour Air says the new Victoria service is part of its push for improved connectivity, more choice and everyday low fares. - Harbour Air says it will help make it easier to visit family and friends or explore the region. - More information and reservations are available at Harbour Air.

Between the lines: - Victoria gains another international air link at a time when border-region travel remains a competitive sell for airlines. - The route also reinforces seaplane travel as a niche but practical option for short Pacific Northwest trips. - Local leaders framed the service as an economic win, with the City of Victoria highlighting tourism and collaboration and the Greater Victoria Chamber of Commerce pointing to business travel, trade and investment.

What’s next: - The summer schedule runs through Sept. 30, 2026. - The introductory fare window closes June 18, 2026, or sooner if seats sell out. - The route’s performance will likely help determine whether Harbour Air keeps or expands the Victoria-Seattle service beyond the summer season.

The bottom line: - Harbour Air is betting that short, direct seaplane service can win travelers looking for speed, convenience and a new cross-border connection.
