Flair Airlines History:
2005–2008
Flair Air operated two Boeing 727–200 aircraft, one for passenger movements and the other for freight services. Flair began providing workforce transportation services to several natural resources and major construction companies across Canada.
2008–2019
Flair began adding Boeing 737-400s to its fleet in 2008 to replace the 727-200s. The airline continued to add these aircraft until delivery of a fifth aircraft in 2015. In June 2017 Flair announced it had purchased the assets of Manitoba-based discount travel company NewLeaf – Flair had been the operator of NewLeaf's flights, as it was not licensed as an airline. Flair retained 85% of former NewLeaf staff in the acquisition.
In January 2014, Flair acquired a VIP Embraer ERJ-175 and a VIP Dornier Do-328. Both were retired in September 2016. In late 2017, Flair Air became Flair Airlines, unveiled a new magenta and blue livery, acquired additional aircraft, and announced plans to add more in 2018 and 2019. Two more 737-400s arrived at the airline in December 2017. In 2018, Flair moved its headquarters from Kelowna International Airport to Edmonton International Airport and 777 Partners invested in Flair with the goal of building a Canadian low-fare carrier. In December 2018, Flair received three leased Boeing 737-800s. These were returned to lessor Smartwings in 2019 as a separately leased trio of 737-800s arrived at the airline. Those three currently remain in Flair's fleet.
2019 rebranding–present
In February 2019, Flair went through a "top to bottom" makeover, changing its signature colors from purple and red to acid green and black. This reflects the airline's new "Plane and Simple" branding. The brand makeover included a new livery that currently remains on the airline's three 737-800s. New flight attendant uniforms were also rolled out in September 2019.
In February 2020, Flair offered unlimited travel in the form of a one-time fee 90-day pass valid between February 13 and May 13, 2020.
Flair retired their final Boeing 737–400 aircraft in August 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic.
In January 2021, Flair announced an order for 13 Boeing 737 MAX 8 jets, a first step in the airline's plan to grow to 50 aircraft within 5 years. The aircraft will be leased from financing partner 777 Partners. The first of these aircraft arrived in May 2021, with a total of 8 scheduled to arrive over the summer months. The remaining five will arrive before 2022. 777 Partner's full order consisted of 24 MAX 8s, with options for 60 more. This order came at a crucial time for Boeing, as it dealt with a revamp of MAX operations following a months-long grounding of the type. All future aircraft deliveries to Flair will be painted in an updated livery, which includes the airline's signature acid green and black colors, as well as subtle highlights of light purple.
As always, feedback/improvement tips are highly appreciated!
