Menzies Aviation, the global aviation logistics specialist, has announced that it has been awarded full-service ground handling agreements by Flair Airlines, Canada’s only independent ultra-low-cost carrier. This will further expand Menzies’ partnership with the airline to encompass nine of the 19 stations in its domestic network.
Menzies will provide passenger and ramp services to Flair Airlines at Halifax Stanfield International Airport, Ottawa International Airport, and Winnipeg James Armstrong Richardson International Airport from May; at the airports of Saint John, Charlottetown, and Victoria from July; and at Abbotsford International Airport from August.
This will build on the existing partnership between Menzies and Flair at two key Canadian stations, with Menzies having supported the carrier at Toronto Pearson International Airport since February and at Saskatoon John G. Diefenbaker International Airport since August 2020, where the Menzies team is currently preparing for flights to restart in May.
