VOYAGEUR’S OVERSEAS OPERATIONS 

With operations spanning the globe, the majority of Voyageur’s overseas operations support the provision of security and infrastructure for disadvantaged communities throughout the world.  Voyageur and its employees take great pride in Voyageur’s small role in providing assistance for these communities in most need.   

The Overseas Experience 

Voyageur employees travel the world, experience different cultures and traditions, while operating in a safe environment with living accommodations maintained to Canadian standards

Equipment 

Voyageur operates Bombardier CRJ, Dash 8-300, and Dash 7 aircraft on overseas operations.  On-site Canadian licensed maintenance engineers maintain all aircraft to Canadian standards.   

Safety

The success of Voyageur’s overseas operations is rooted in Voyageur’s reputation for safe operations.  Our customers absolutely demand the highest level of safety commitment and continually audit our operations to ensure compliance.

WAGE PREMIUM 

Voyageur overseas employees earn a wage premium of 2.35 times their normal domestic wage for time spent overseas. 

Flexibility of Rotation Schedules 

Voyageur asks its overseas employees to commit to a minimum average of six months at the overseas location per year.  The base rotation schedule is 8 weeks overseas, 8 weeks off.  However, Voyageur works with employees to develop a rotation schedule that works best for the employee.  Since wage is directly tied to time spent overseas, some employees may wish to work more than 6 months overseas per year. Requests for extended rotations are normally accommodated.

Live Anywhere 

Employees can live anywhere during their time off from the overseas location.  Whether it be a big city or a small home town, Voyageur provides the airline transportation between the overseas location and your city of residence. 

JOB SECURITY 

Voyageur will soon celebrate is 40^th consecutive year of operations.  Few aviation companies in Canada offer the consistency of service and ongoing success that Voyageur has benefited from.  Continued growth and financial stability are hallmarks of Voyageur’s continued reputation within the aviation industry.

Benefits 

Voyageur offers employees and employees’ families extensive benefits. Extended health care benefits include dental, vision, prescription drugs, hearing, out-of-country insurance, orthotic devices, semi-private hospital, and more.  Other benefits include life and disability insurance, retirement pension, and a number of other employee assistance programs. 

Income Tax Incentives 

Most of Voyageur’s overseas employees benefit from the Revenue Canada Overseas Employment Tax Credit (OETC).  The OETC effectively eliminates 80% of Canadian income tax for the first $100,000 of salary.
