Can Flair Airlines survive as the lone low-cost carrier in Canada?
Description
March 29, 2024
It's been one month since Lynx Air shut down service in Canada, leaving Flair Airlines as the last ultra-low-cost carrier in the country. But amid a slew of reputational and financial uncertainty that has dogged the airline in just the past year, Canadians who may be looking to book spring or summer travel may be pressing pause on whether to book with the carrier. Sean Previl reports on what the company's CEO believes is in store for the company, and why the low-cost model is not easy to operate in Canada.
