History

Commuter Express was founded in 1984 by Soundair for scheduled commuter flights using Fairchild Metros. In 1988, with a contract to feed Air Canada at Toronto Pearson International Airport the name was changed to Air Toronto and the Metros were replaced with Jetstream 31 aircraft.

In 1990, the airline's parent company, Soundair, entered receivership, but Air Toronto was continued to operate as a separate entity as it was profitable. On October 1, 1991, Air Toronto started flying under Ontario Express and the two airlines merged in December 1991.[1]
