The return leg uses the same aircraft and guide pricing; timings may shift up to ±10% depending on winds.
Guide prices are one-way estimates incl. positioning; taxes/handling extra. Round-trip and one-way both available. Currency conversion is approximate.
Several variables shape what you pay for a Ottawa–St. John's charter: the distance and prevailing winds on the day, fuel costs at both ends, handling and landing fees at both airports, and the specific aircraft confirmed against live availability.
You can fly to or from any of these airports at each end; we match the most convenient to your trip:
Ottawa, Canada: Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport and Ottawa / Gatineau Airport.
St. John's, Canada: St. John's International Airport.

15 of the 16 aircraft we quote for Ottawa to St. John's use both airfields and fly it non-stop. The exception is the Embraer Phenom 100EV, 29 km short after reserves on a 1,767 km leg — it would need a fuel stop. Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport has 10,000 ft and St. John's International Airport 8,502 ft, both comfortably beyond the 6,000 ft the largest types here need, so field length is not what decides the aircraft on this route — cabin size and range are.
Alternates within range: Ottawa / Gatineau Airport (6,000 ft, 24 km) · Ottawa / Carp Airport (3,937 ft, 28 km) · Smiths Falls-Montague (Russ Beach) Airport (4,000 ft, 47 km) · Arnprior Airport (3,955 ft, 55 km) · Bell Island Airport (2,300 ft, 17 km) · Harbour Grace Airport · St. John's (Paddys Pond) Seaplane Base · St. John's (Universal) Heliport
