Pacific Coastal Airlines Expands Service Between Vancouver and Penticton
MEDIA RELEASE
"As Penticton continues to grow, this expansion of service by Pacific Coastal Airlines is very welcome.
We know more people are calling our community home and these improved connections with the Lower
Mainland will help to drive our economy forward. Whether you are flying for business or pleasure,
Penticton is the place to be," said Julius Bloomfield, Mayor of Penticton.
"We are absolutely delighted with this expanded service," stated Thom Tischik, Executive Director at
Visit Penticton. "This means more visitors can have convenient access to the city and region and also
this is great news for our residents to reach Vancouver and connect to points beyond.”
"It's clear that Pacific Coastal recognizes Penticton as a sought-after destination that is both iconic and
economical for those seeking an Okanagan experience," says Karen Davy, Convention Bureau and
Business Liaison Manager at Meet in Penticton. "That includes business travellers coming to explore our
amenities and services, then bringing their meetings and conventions here. We're incredibly excited
about this expansion."
“Destination Osoyoos is thrilled that Pacific Coastal Airlines has announced an expansion to their
services from the Penticton Airport. The confidence and support they have shown in our region are very
encouraging as we continue to rebuild our communities and businesses and recover from the many
challenges the region has endured over the past few years. Further investment and visitation will surely
be increased to the South Okanagan as a result of the new services announced,” says Kelley Glazer,
Executive Director CHA, MA Tourism and Hospitality.
“The communities of the South Okanagan have partnered with Pacific Coastal Airlines to develop flydrive touring programs that showcase our award-winning wineries and breweries, championship golf and
epic hikes. The new schedule is so convenient - larger aircraft and additional flights mean that more
people can explore more often!” Says Jackie Frederick from Visit South Okanagan.
“We are extremely excited by the news from Pacific Coastal regarding the flights they will be providing
to the interior starting in April. The increased service greatly enhances access to our communities from
across the province, and supports residents from the interior to be able to venture to other parts of BC
for work and play! This is great news for the South Okanagan!” Says Ian Lobb, Executive Director, Oliver
Tourism.

The Salmon Chief ☀️ :

"Historically, the Okanagan Nation gathered each autumn near this place to harvest the abundant sockeye salmon returning from their long journey to the Pacific Ocean. The Okanagan Elders tell of the assembled leaders' selection of a "Salmon Chief" to ensure an equitable sharing of the salmon harvest among all the tribal families."

Another round of accolades for our entry-level Pinot! Our Okanagan Valley Pinot Noir is a blend of Pinot from vineyard sites across the valley, and was made in the spirit of food-friendly approachability. So imagine our delight when our OKV Pinot's most recent vintage has been awarded not one, but three 90+ point reviews from esteemed critics across Canada:

"Raspberry, strawberry, ripe red cherry and some milk chocolate intermingled with gentle oak. Inviting and highly agreeable." Robert K Stephen, 92 points

"An outstanding value BC Pinot Noir. Vibrant aromas of cherries, and raspberries with floral notes. On the palate are ripe red cherries, strawberries, leather, and earthy undertones. The tannins are smoother than velvet!" Julian Parks, 91 points

"Pinot noir fans can rejoice: the bargain priced Meyer Family Pinot Noir, aka the Okanagan Valley label, is a winner in 2022... winemaker Chris Carson has worked his magic on this eminently drinkable and affordable red." Anthony Gismondi, 90 points
