This brings Flair’s total aircraft count to 16 and will allow the airline to expand its route offering by 33 percent.

Flair will launch its service this spring to new destinations such as San Francisco, Nashville and Denver.

It will also launch service between Toronto and Victoria and Comox, BC for the first time.

Flair is also beginning service to 6 US destinations this fall and currently serves 18 destinations in Canada. The airline says it will grow to serve 28 destinations in the spring of 2022.

Fares to US destinations start at $ 99 to $ 129 one way and several of the new Canadian domestic routes have fares as low as $ 49 one way, including taxes and fees, the ultra-low-cost carrier said.

Flair says the addition of the new aircraft will create 150 new jobs for flight attendants, pilots and operational support personnel.

Flair is currently recruiting for 100 pilot jobs to meet the needs of its growing fleet.
