How many FIRs is Canada divided into?

Canada is divided into seven Flight Information Regions (FIRs). Each FIR serves as a designated area for providing critical air traffic services, including the management of aircraft operations and ensuring safety in the airspace. The division into seven FIRs allows for efficient handling of the varied air traffic throughout the expansive territory of Canada, accommodating the diverse operating environments from urban centers to remote regions.

The establishment of seven FIRs considers factors such as geography, population density, and the volume of air traffic, enabling air traffic controllers to coordinate and manage flights effectively within each region. This structure is vital not just for managing air traffic but also for providing critical support and services to pilots operating in different parts of Canadian airspace.
