I strongly encourage residents and businesses to use this new air service when it starts on October 10th. PASCAN is committed to these regions and will work closely with its citizens to provide a safe, reliable air service that offers competitive and consistent pricing.”

that is configured with leather seating and plenty of leg room for our passengers’ comfort,” added
