During my 11 years as President/CEO for BSNC from 1999-2010 I flew Bering Air exclusively between Unalakleet and Nome along with many charters between Nome and BSNC villages. I flew with Bering Air because of their reliability, especially with their schedule and their respect of flying weather. Their pilots, along with all of their staff were always friendly and courteous and made it a pleasure to fly with them. Their safety record was also very impressive to me, which made it easier to select their flights.
