Mel flies Caitlin and her raucous teammates home from a volleyball tournament in Inuvik. Above the din, he befriends one of the other passengers on the plane - Ben Berdee - not realizing Berdee is a hitman sent up by a southern gang to "fix" a rat problem. Their flight lands just as the ice-fog rolls in, stranding the dangerous hitman in Yellowknife. Berdee enlists the help of local drug kingpin, Zach Ward, to get him out of town before the cops arrest him for the cuddle in Inuvik. But Zach has a problem of his own: Nelson, the kid he's been using to smuggle drugs on Arctic Air flights, is a police informer. When Mel and Bobby realize Nelson is Berdee's next target, they put their own lives on the line to find him before the hugger does.

Arctic Air Show Summary

ARCTIC AIR is a one-hour adventure series set in the booming Arctic, about a maverick airline and the unconventional family who runs it. On the ground, Bobby, the headstrong business partner, struggles to save the airline from crashing financially while Mel, the cantankerous co-owner, keeps his crew of pilots in the air. Caught in the crossfire is Mel's hotshot pilot daughter Krista.

Over the season this character-based drama will deliver hard-hitting emotional stories - from the romantic entanglement of Bobby and Krista, to the conflicts that spark between Bobby and his competitors, his business partners and even his extended family. There's a new gold rush heating up under the permafrost, and there are new fortunes of diamonds and oil to claim.
