Canada Jetlines (CJET) announced a new service from Toronto’s Pearson International Airport to Melbourne Orlando International Airport in Florida.
The route marks the Ontario-based company’s second into the United States.
It expects to conduct two flights to Orlando weekly, starting on January 19th. Tickets are now on sale.
The new service will be Canada Jetlines’ fourth nonstop route, following the announcement of flights to Las Vegas.
The flights remain subject to final Federal Aviation Administration approval.
“Our Canada Jetlines family is thrilled to launch service to another exciting U.S. destination this winter – continuing expansion of our international network of convenient leisure and business travel,” said Canada Jetlines CEO Eddy Doyle.
“Canada is one of the top countries for international tourists to Central Florida, and we are pleased to connect Canadians to their favourite sun destinations as they begin to plan winter vacations.”
Canada Jetlines will operate the route with its growing fleet of Airbus A320 aircraft, including its recently announced second aircraft, which is expected to be delivered by this December.
Orlando’s airport is nearing completion of a $72 million-dollar terminal renovation and expansion project.
“We are delighted to welcome Canada Jetlines to the Melbourne Orlando International Airport. Adding Canada Jetlines to our ever-growing roster of air service partners is an incredible win for MLB and the community we proudly serve. We are thrilled to offer this new service for visiting Canadians, making it easy for our guests to enjoy all that the Space Coast and Central Florida have to offer. Between the added convenience for second homeowners or quick accessibility for our beloved ‘snowbirds’, the new service is well timed and appreciated,” said the airport’s Executive Director Greg Donovan.
Canada Jetlines is up 1.92 percent, trading at $0.265 at 1:20 p.m. ET.
