An Equipment ‘Short-List’ For Those Flying To Timmins

This list is a 'short-list' of the most essential items you will need to bring with you. You can also refer to the more extensive list by clicking here.

Flight Arrangements
You or your travel agent can make arrangements to fly to Toronto International Airport, with a connection at Toronto to Timmins Ontario. You will fly to Timmins from Toronto, (about one hour and fifteen minutes) via Air Ontario, in a Dash-8 fifty-seater turbo-prop. Air Ontario provides the only service into Timmins. Early bookings or seat sales will most likely save you money. Because space aboard aircraft is limited, these items are most important.. in order of priority....
