Flair Hits The Air

Dec 15, 2017 | 3:15 PM

Flair Air is the newest low cost option for Okanagan travellers.

The Kelowna based airline started service today for flights between Kelowna, Vancouver and Edmonton.

One way from Kelowna to Vancouver is being offered for $49 for a limited time.

Flair is also offering flights from Kelowna to Toronto.

“Flair Airlines is headquartered in Kelowna, so this means a great deal to us; to begin offering flights to and from Kelowna International Airport. We consider today a bit of a homecoming,” says Chris Lapointe, Vice President of Commercial Operations. “We want to connect Canadians, and we believe the routes that we are offering from here will amplify our reach across Canada.”

“We’re pleased to welcome and support Kelowna’s very own Flair Airlines,” says Sam Samaddar, YLW’s Airport Director. “Flair brings new opportunity for leisure travellers to share in and experience all that the Okanagan has to offer.”
