“This is a significant expansion of our service, ” commented Ron Hell, Director of Marketing and Sales, ” Demand for our service in NE Ontario has been growing as we continue to evolve our fares strategy to be more competitive in the marketplace. In addition, we are the only airline serving these markets that does not charge for your first checked bag, providing for saving up to $35 each way.”
