Flair Airlines, the Canada-based low-cost airline, has revealed its plans to expand its fleet of Boeing 737 aircraft to support service expansion.

The airline currently operates a fleet of seven Boeing 737s serving eight cities across Canada and intends to expand both frequency and the reach of its services. Flair commented in a statement: “This step is almost complete, which the remaining critical step being the fleet renewal and expansion plan.”

Having transitioned from a charter operator to a scheduled low-cost airline in 2017, the airline saw nearly one million passengers in 2019 and so to meet the growing demand it announced it is seeking expressions of interest from lessors with available Boeing 737 aircraft for delivery in early 2020.

“Canada has one of the highest costs for air travel in the world and that’s a problem Flair intends to fix,” the airline commented. “Flair has caused significant passenger growth in Canada and fare reductions of up to 40% on the routes it serves.”
