Traveller Tips
  • Book flights well in advance as seats on regional carriers serving the Lower North Shore are limited and fill quickly.
  • Confirm your flight status directly with the carrier, as schedules can change due to weather along the St. Lawrence coast.
  • Arrange ground transport and accommodation before arrival, as Chevery has very few public services available on short notice.
  • Pack for variable weather — the Lower North Shore experiences harsh conditions especially in autumn and winter.
