LYNX AIR ANNOUNCES MAJOR EXPANSION TO UNITED STATES


To celebrate, Lynx is launching a contest to win free flight and accommodation packages to its new sun destinations

CALGARY, AB, Sept. 28, 2022 /CNW/ - Lynx Air (Lynx), Canada's new ultra-affordable airline, today announced its expansion into the United States, with the addition of Orlando, Phoenix, Los Angeles and Las Vegas to its network.

Orlando will be Lynx's first US destination, with flights taking off from Toronto starting on January 27, 2023.  Lynx's US network will continue to expand over the following weeks, with the launch of services out of the Calgary gateway to Phoenix on February 7, 2023, Los Angeles on February 16, 2023, and Las Vegas on February 24, 2023. At that point, Lynx will be operating 5,292 seats per week to and from the United States from its Toronto and Calgary hubs.

Tickets go on sale today, and the fares are truly ultra-affordable, starting from $109* one way, including taxes. To celebrate, Lynx will be offering four lucky Canadians a chance to win a free flight and accommodation package to one of Lynx's new sun destinations. The airline has also launched a limited-time seat sale, offering up to 50 per cent off all base fares to and from the United States, with the promo code LYNXUSA.  The sale will run from 11:00 AM MDT on September 28, 2022, and end at 12:00 PM MDT on October 6, 2022. For complete contest details, and to book an ultra-affordable fare, please visit FlyLynx.com.

"With winter approaching, we know Canadians love to travel south in search of warmer weather. We are thrilled to be offering an ultra-affordable option to four of the most popular sun destinations in the United States," said Merren McArthur, CEO of Lynx.  "By choosing Lynx, Canadians can save on the journey and spend more at their sun-soaked getaway. We are so excited about our US expansion that we have launched a competition today to win a free flight and accommodation package to one of our new sun destinations: Orlando, Phoenix, Los Angeles or Las Vegas."

"This is another great option for Toronto Pearson passengers to access popular winter destinations," says Janik Reigate, Director, Strategic Customer Relationships for the Greater Toronto Airports Authority. "As the U.S. is a top country for travel through Pearson, these routes support travel to an important and attractive market for Canadians."

"Lynx's expansion to the U.S. is a strong indication of their confidence in YYC and that the future of air travel is bright. Their new routes provide Calgarians even more choice to visit desirable destinations south of the border," said Rob Palmer, Vice President, Commercial, Strategy & Chief Financial Officer. "We look forward to continuing to partner with Lynx Air on creating memorable experiences for our guests."
