Lynx Air files for protection from its creditors, will cease operations on February 26

Lynx Air made this announcement:

Lynx Air will cease flight operations as of 12:01 a.m. MT on Monday, February 26.

Tremendous work was put into the growth and expansion of Lynx Air over the past two years, offering Canadians a low-cost, seamless travel experience for Canadians.

However, 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.

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.
