At first glance, turboprop aircraft like the De Havilland Dash 8-400 may seem destined only for short, quick hops between nearby cities. But Air Canada Express, the regional affiliate of Air Canada, has used the Dash 8-400 on a variety of longer routes, proving its reliability and efficiency even on sectors nearing 620 miles (1,000 km). These longer missions speak to the aircraft’s impressive range, excellent economics, and adaptability across the diverse geographies of Canada and beyond.
