Flair Airlines is a Canadian low-cost carrier based in Edmonton, Alberta. It operates a fleet of Boeing 737 aircraft with a route network that serves Canada and several US destinations, Mexico, and the Caribbean. Could it be a sign that Canadians are not traveling as much to the United States given the current political climate or is the airline just reshuffling its route map? Whatever the reason, the low-cost carrier is cutting seven routes in April.

These routes are largely seasonal and many were set to end in late April. There is no word on whether they will return next year. Flair serves over 35 cities across Canada, the US, Mexico, Jamaica, and the Dominican Republic. Flair flies to nine US destinations, including:
- Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL)
- Las Vegas Harry Reid International Airport (LAS)
- Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)
- Nashville International Airport (BNA)
- New York John F Kennedy International Airport (JFK)
- Orlando International Airport (MCO)
- Palm Springs International Airport (PSP)
- Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX)
- San Francisco International Airport (SFO)
Anthony’s Take: Canadians are being encouraged not to vacation in the United States or buy US goods based on the current trade war. Let’s see how this plays out and if these routes were ended early due to demand as it appears that might be tapering.
