Nationair was a Canandian airline founded in 1986. It operated charter as well as scheduled passenger services in the late 1980s and early 1990s from bases in Montreal and Toronto, with seasonal bases in Quebec City as well as flights out of Hamilton, Ontario to London, England. At one point, Nationair was Canada's third largest airline, after Air Canada and Canadian Airlines International.
Destinations during the winter months consisted mostly of sunny destinations in Florida, the Caribbean, Mexico and South America. Summer destinations included Vancouver and Calgary but had a heavy emphasis on European destinations - mainly England, Scotland, Portugal and France. The airline also had year-round scheduled service between Montreal Mirabel Airport and Brussels, Belgium, serving the route up to daily.
During shoulder periods and in order to maximize use of its aircraft, Nationair did a number of sub-contracts. These would sometimes, but not always, include flight attendants as well. This enabled Nationair aircraft to see duty in the Middle East during the run up to the Gulf War doing evacuations, work for the United Nations moving troops into Namibia as well as flights for Nigerian Airways in 1991, in which one flight ended in disaster.
Nationairal so did a number of sub-charters for airlines such as Hispania Líneas Aéreas, Garuda Indonesia, UTA and LTU International.
The company went bankrupt in the spring of 1993 after it was discovered that it owed the government millions of dollars in unpaid landing fees.
