Flair Airlines continues to soar as Canada's most reliable airline with expanding fleet and new budget-friendly routes.

In Australia, the demise of Bonza and Rex has cast a shadow over new airline start-ups, but in Canada, the low-cost carrier Flair Airlines is going from strength to strength as it celebrates its 19th birthday. Yesterday, the airline made Canadian travelers the winners by announcing a week-long 19% discount on tickets. Happy Birthday Flair Flair Airlines (Flair) is proving to be Canada's most reliable and affordable airline.
To celebrate its 19th birthday, Flair is offering a special promotion designed to attract more travelers onto its planes for less. In keeping with its 19th birthday, Flair is offering a week-long 19% off base fare promo on all flights and an exclusive 25% off transborder and international flights for Flair's Frequent Flyer Club members. Flair earned the title of Canada' most reliable airline in June but passengers traveling to the US with dogs need to watch for new rules in August Flair started as a charter carrier in 2005 and became a commercial airline in 2017.
The low-fare carrier has an expanding fleet of 20 Boeing 737 aircraft that serve more than 35 cities across Canada, the US, Mexico, the Dominican Republic and Jamacia. Flair Airlines CEO Maciej Wilk said celebrating 19 years of flying in Canada's challenging aviation landscape is a testament to its resilience and commitment to providing the most affordable flight options. "Thanks to the Flair Effect, Canadians now enjoy airfares that are 34% lower on average on routes that Flair flies, benefiting all travelers, even if they don't fly with Flair.
As we look ahead to the next 19 years, we invite our loyal passengers to continue flying with us, and for those that haven't now is your chance to see the affordable travel you have been missing." The discounts apply to all Flair flights, including the new services to Mexico's Guadalajara International (GDL) and Florida's Orlando International Airport (MCO). The Vancouver - Guadalajara route commenced on May 31, 2024, and operates thrice weekly.
Canada's low-cost carrier Flair Airlines has been the most reliable airline in Canada in 2023, as well as the second most punctual. More 737s to Guadalajara Last Friday, flight F82854 departed Vancouver International (YVR) at 13:58 and, after a 4:27-hour flight, landed in Guadalajara at 19:25. The service was operated with a 2019 Boeing 737 MAX 8 , registration C-GFOF and MSN 44302, departed GDL at 20:53 and landed back in Vancouver at 00:37 on Saturday.
Following the early success in Guadalajara, Flair is launching a new service from Toronto Pearson International (YYZ) on September 13, 2024. The route will operate up to three times weekly during the fall/winter 2024 and spring 2025 seasons, with fares starting as low as CAD$109 ($80) one-way. This will give Canadian travelers an affordable and convenient option to visit Mexico's second-most populous city.
Today, Flair released its Fall and Winter 2024/Spring 2025 Peak Schedule, listing starting fares for 50 destinations. Flair noted that the fares listed are for travel from south to north and that north-to-south fees are typically higher due to high airport fees. The 50 fares listed range from CND$16 ($12) for Fort Lauderdale (FLL) to Kitchener/Waterloo to CND$169 ($124) for a flight from Los Cabos (SJD) to Vancouver (YVR).
