Flair Airlines

🇨🇦 It’s official: we are the home of the $1 base fare • 💸 Have we lost our senses? Quite the opposite, and to quote Maciej Wilk, it’s “not a limited-time gimmick, but a sustained commitment to offering unparalleled affordability across our entire network. And yet, our base fare is only a part of the total fare. We hope that airports, particularly in Canada, will follow suit and lower their fees so that more people can be empowered to travel.” Take a look at our $1 base fare* page to see how we’re making it possible for more people to explore more places more often. https://lnkd.in/gTfvmbpF 🛫 *** $1 base fare does not include airport fees

🚧 "During one of the busiest travel weeks of the year, Saskatoon International Airport informed us that they have made a decision to close down their largest runway for repairs, giving airlines less than one week’s notice of the change. This places both our customer’s plans and our operations at risk. While there are no issues yet, thanks to favourable weather, it is unacceptable to us to provide this little notice to an airport’s operation, and it causes Flair to evaluate its future in Saskatoon going forward." - Eric Tanner, regarding Saskatoon Airport // Aéroport de Saskatoon 's sudden runway closure announcement: #Saskatchewan #Saskatoon #YXE

"It is with sadness that we learned of the closure of Canada Jetlines. Our hearts go out to their dedicated team and their families during this difficult time. Canada Jetlines worked tirelessly to provide Canadians with a much-needed alternative to the status quo in aviation, and their departure is a sobering reminder of the challenges that face airlines committed to fair competition in this country. This news only strengthens Flair’s resolve. We understand our critical role in providing affordable, reliable air travel for Canadians. Our commitment to streamlining our operations, innovating in network planning, and maintaining agility in the face of external challenges remains unwavering. Flair’s mission has always been to drive market competition, ensuring Canadians have access to the lowest possible fares. We are more determined than ever to keep that promise. Competition in Canadian aviation is not just important—it’s essential. Flair has been at the forefront of challenging the Big Two, and we will continue to do so with resilience, dedication, and a clear focus on efficiency. We will honour the spirit of competition that Canada Jetlines helped foster by continuing to push the boundaries of what’s possible, staying true to our mission, and ensuring that Flair remains a vital choice for travellers across Canada." -             Maciej Wilk, Flair CEO

Flair had an incredible long weekend at @BuskersHFX in Halifax, NS •🤹♀️🎭 Flying from YHZ to four Canadian cities, we brought Flair's connections to Halifax with our customized Connect 4 game. In keeping with our ethos of moments over things, we captured smiles and shared memories on Polaroids for folks to take home. It’s fun to think how many fridges those pictures might be on across Canada. Thank you to all who came by, played Connect 4, shared Flair memories with us - and won free flights! And thank you, Halifax, for that trademark Maritime hospitality. You kept our team flying all the way back to YKF, YYC, YXX and YVR. #flyflair #livewithflair

Proud of every journey, regardless of where it lands.

July was yet another month with Flair at #1 for completion rates and #1 for on-time performance (OTP). At 71.1%, we know we have room for improvement, but we’re proud to take first place among all airlines in Canada for OTP. 🏅 We also shattered our own passengers-flown record, flying at a fuel-efficient 94% capacity and a whopping 493,589 passengers. 🎉 Did we mention “fuel-efficient”? 🌍 Last month, we reduced our own CO2 emissions by 2 grams, which might not seem like a lot, but it adds up, especially for carbon-conscious travellers. ✈️ “If you’re concerned about the environmental impact of aviation, Flair is your best choice.” - Maciej Wilk For passengers who haven’t tried us yet, we invite you to give us a fly. We’re always striving to serve you better while playing an essential role in democratizing air travel. Flying à la carte is the smart way to travel. 😎 Take a look; the numbers speak for themselves. 👀 https://lnkd.in/g6FcCVZG #FlyFlair #FlyFair #FlyAffordable
