Fee Published
Firearms count toward the passenger's checked-baggage allowance and, if that allowance is exceeded, are subject to the carrier's standard excess-baggage tariff rate - whether presented as one piece or several. No firearm-specific handling fee is stated.
No equivalent fee statement appears on the live English website page. No inference drawn beyond the tariff's wording.
Air Inuit’s wording
Les armes à feu sont prises en compte dans le calcul de la franchise de bagages et, en cas d'excédent, sont soumises au tarif applicable aux excédents de bagages, qu'elles soient ou non présentées en un seul exemplaire.
Advance notice Sources disagree
Advance arrangements must be made before Air Inuit will accept firearms or assembled ammunition for transportation - except that unloaded sport firearms in a locked, appropriate case, with up to 5 kg of small-calibre ammunition for personal use in its original manufacturer packaging, are exempted from the advance-arrangement requirement. No specific lead time (hours/days) is stated for the firearms that do require advance arrangements.
The tariff's "Items Unacceptable as Baggage" clause (Règle 0190) requires advance arrangements for assembled firearms/ammunition, explicitly exempting unloaded sport firearms in a locked case with up to 5 kg of small-calibre personal ammunition from that requirement ("sans qu'il soit nécessaire de prendre des dispositions à l'avance"). The separate special-items fees clause (Règle 0195) governing the "shooting equipment" category states flatly that "advance arrangements must be made" for the same shooting equipment, with no stated exemption. The two rules of the same tariff read as contradictory for the exact scenario of an unloaded, cased sport rifle with its 5 kg ammunition allowance. Not resolved here.
Tariff (contract of carriage) à l'exception des armes à feu de sport non chargées et placées dans un étui approprié verrouillé, ainsi qu'une quantité maximale de 5 KG de munitions pour armes de petit calibre destinées à un usage personnel, emballées dans l'emballage d'origine du fabricant (sans qu'il soit nécessaire de prendre des dispositions à l'avance).
Tariff (contract of carriage) Les armes à feu doivent être déchargées et placées dans un conteneur approprié et barré. Des dispositions doivent être prises à l'avance.
Follow the stricter of the two. Meeting the tougher requirement satisfies both, and the contract of carriage is what the airline can enforce at the counter.
At the airport Published
Passengers travelling with firearms, ammunition or cartridges must declare such items at check-in and complete a declaration form. The tariff separately requires firearms and ammunition, sporting and non-sporting, to be declared to the carrier at check-in, with the carrier refusing to transport any undeclared items.
Air Inuit’s wording
Important reminder: Passengers travelling with firearms, ammunition or cartridges must declare such items at check-in and complete a declaration form.
Les armes à feu et les munitions sportives et non sportives ne sont acceptées qu'en tant que bagages enregistrés. Ces articles doivent être déclarés au transporteur au moment de l'enregistrement. À défaut de quoi, le transporteur refusera de les transporter.
Maximum firearms Published
Not stated as an absolute per-passenger maximum. The tariff's special-item "shooting equipment" category caps what counts as a single such item: a rifle case with up to two rifles, or two shotguns with two shotgun cases, or a pistol case with up to five pistols - but does not say a passenger cannot bring more than one such item, only that any excess is billed at the excess-baggage rate.
No inference drawn beyond the per-case counts the tariff itself states.
Air Inuit’s wording
un équipement de tir est défini comme un étui à fusil contenant au maximum deux fusils ... ou un étui à pistolet contenant au maximum cinq pistolets
