    Government has announced a new agreement with PAL Airlines to provide an intraprovincial air travel loop between  Deer Lake, Gander and  St. John’s. The routes will run seasonally from June 15th to September 20th, operating four days per week, creating the potential for economic benefits for the tourism industry. Strengthening these connections will provide more flexible options for connecting flights at all three airports, whether they are arriving, exploring the province, or preparing to depart. Tammy Priddle is president and CEO of the deer Lake Regional Airport Authority. She says  “Deer Lake Regional Airport welcomes the new triangle route, increasing connectivity between St. John's, Gander and Deer Lake for visitors and business travellers. This new route will allow more people to access our beautiful region for leisure and business and demonstrates the Provincial Government’s commitment to enhancing air access for our province.”
