Fast Air celebrates 30 years of Canadian aviation growth
The company marked three decades of operations with a celebration at Winnipeg headquarters, also unveiling its refreshed branding.
Dylan Fast, the company's president and owner, says the milestone was about celebrating employees, clients and community.

Fast Air, a Canadian private aviation and charter provider, celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2025. Since its founding in 1995, the company grew from a single base in Winnipeg into a trusted aviation partner with locations in Winnipeg and Abbotsford, serving clients across North America.

Over three decades, Fast Air expanded to offer executive air charter, medevac services through Vanguard Air Care, aircraft management and fixed base operations. The company built its reputation with a focus on safety, service and innovation.

“Reaching 30 years is a milestone we’re incredibly proud of,” says Dylan Fast, president and owner of Fast Air. “This anniversary is about celebrating the people who have shaped our story: our employees, our clients and our community. As we look ahead, we’re committed to sustainable growth and innovation that serve our customers and strengthen Canadian aviation.”

To mark the occasion, Fast Air hosted an autumn celebration at Winnipeg Richardson International Airport with staff and families. The company also refreshed its branding this year to reflect its values of trust, service and people-first culture while honouring its Canadian roots.
