Cessna “850” Caravan    $1,400 per hour
Capacity- 9 passengers/2100 LBS of cargo
Horsepower- 850 HP Jet-Prop
Speed- 200 MPH
Configuration- Amphibious/IFR Day or Night Certified


Our Cessna Caravan amphibian can transport 9 passengers & gear or 2100 lbs of freight at 200 MPH to locations throughout Alaska. When loaded with nine passengers the Caravan produces a per passenger flight mile cost of only $.77 per mile, one of the lowest flight mile costs in the industry. We are FAA certified to fly the Caravan IFR  (in and above clouds) which provides passengers with safe, reliable flights to and from destinations that are  normally inaccessible during times of adverse weather conditions.  

The Island Air Express Caravan safely operates in IFR conditions by participating in the FAA’s “Capstone” program which uses a navigation system known as Synthetic Flight Vision Technology. This modern technology replaces conventional “steam gauge” instruments which has been the industry standard since instrument flying was first introduced in the early 1930’s. Using this advanced technology developed by Chelton Flight Systems we are able to take advantage of special Capstone low level routes with lower instrument approach minimums that are unavailable to non Capstone participating operators




Our Cessna 206 floatplane can transport 3 passengers & gear or 1000 lbs of freight at 125 MPH to locations throughout Alaska.  The 206 also has the Chelton “Synthetic Flight Vision” system onboard providing exceptional safety, situational awareness, and traffic alerts during flight.
