Air North — Yukon’s Own Airline, Best YXY Fares

Air North often offers better availability and comparable or lower fares than Air Canada on YVR–YXY and YYC–YXY. Book direct at flyairnorth.com.
Yukon Does Not Observe Daylight Saving Time
The Yukon abolished daylight saving time in 2020 — Whitehorse and all of Yukon remain on Mountain Standard Time (UTC−7) year-round. This means Whitehorse is on the same time as BC in winter but 1 hour behind BC in summer (when BC observes Pacific Daylight Time UTC−7 and Yukon stays at UTC−7). Factor this into scheduling connections through Vancouver or Calgary, where time differences may be unexpected.
