Canadian ULCC to Expand Routes, Fleet with Additional A320
Canada Jetlines has obtained carrier authority from the United States Federal Aviation Administration, allowing the fledgling company to operate within the USA.
The news comes weeks after the economic authority granted by the Department of Transportation, opening the way for the airline to head south and begin competing in the ultra-low-cost-carrier market. The line will be Canada's first of the ULCC breed, expanding throughout a series of popular travel destinations with operations focused on the domestic market. Since 2019, the firm has acquired slots in Mexico, the Dominican Republic, and the US.
Earlier this month, the firm launched its twice-weekly nonstop route between Toronto to Vancouver. Jetlines expects to add another aircraft to their fleet of a single A320, which will allow them to begin riding a wave of ticket sales throughout the bountiful low-cost Caribbean travel market. The next A320 will make its way into company hands this week, landing at just the right time to hopefully capitalize on travel demand.
"The U.S. is a major market for Canadian travellers and we are looking forward to expanding our international network. Jetlines is ready to start flying to the Melbourne/Orlando International airport in Florida and to the Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas, with both inaugural flights scheduled for January 19, 2023,” stated Eddy Doyle, CEO of Canada Jetlines.
