Chorus Aviation Inc.

Company Overview

Chorus Aviation Inc. is a Canadian aviation services company primarily operating in the regional aviation and aircraft leasing industries. The company’s core activities historically centered on providing regional passenger air services and related aviation support, with revenue largely derived from long-term capacity purchase agreements, aircraft leasing, and aviation services. Chorus has been best known as the parent company of Jazz Aviation LP, which has operated regional flights on behalf of Air Canada under contractual arrangements.

Founded in 2005 following the income trust conversion of Air Canada Jazz, Chorus evolved from a single-purpose regional airline operator into a more diversified aviation platform. Over time, it expanded into aircraft leasing, maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO), and aviation asset management. In recent years, the company has strategically reduced exposure to traditional regional airline operations while emphasizing asset monetization and balance sheet optimization, reflecting changing dynamics in the regional aviation market.
