They may pickup some other frames depending on their holdings.

Maybe getting Heavy Maintenance in CNS

[Lauren J]

Yes it is

C-FENY (MSN 4447, future VH-84A) was re-registered to JD Aero, a MRO provider in Sault Saint Marie, Ontario on 17/10/24, likely meaning it is receiving heavy mx and (maybe) a repaint into QLK cs.

C-GENM is still registered to WestJet Encore.

Other aircraft parked at Sault Saint Marie (YAM) are C-FIWE, C-FKWE, C-FOWE, C-GWEO and C-GWEP, however I can't say with certainty whether these frames are also heading down under.

The first Q400 is expected to arrive in BNE on Nov 21 and will enter service sometime during December
