Launching less than two years ago, Canada’s low-cost airline Lynx Air ceased operations Feb. 26. The Calgary-based airline continued to operate flights until this past Monday.
“The compounding financial pressures associated with inflation, fuel costs, exchange rates, cost of capital, regulatory costs and competitive tension in the Canadian market have ultimately proven too steep a mountain for our organization to overcome,” the airline released in a statement. “It is with a heavy heart we leave the skies. We hope in our absence that our vision to Inspire More Canadians to Fly leaves its mark on our passengers.”
Prior to shut down, Lynx Air operated 24 non-stop routes across 184 flights. The airline had a fleet of nine Boeing 737-8 aircraft with 37 more on order.
