Canada Jetlines receives final FAA approval for U.S. flights

Canada Jetlines has announced that the United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has granted it authority to operate and fly to and from the United States. 

This news follows the recent economic authority granted by the U.S. Department of Transportation, several weeks ago. 

"The U.S. is a major market for Canadian travellers and we are looking forward to expanding our international network.  Jetlines is ready to start flying to the Melbourne/Orlando International airport in Florida and to the Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas, with both inaugural flights scheduled for January 19, 2023,” stated Eddy Doyle, president and CEO, Canada Jetlines. 

This update follows Canada Jetlines’ confirmation of nonstop service to Vancouver, which officially launched with the inaugural flight on Dec. 9, 2022.
