Good news for anyone in the region who needs to visit the capital. 

Flair Airlines has announced a new, non-stop route between Ottawa International Airport and Kelowna International Airport. 

Starting August 4, the airline will operate flights between the two cities every Wednesday and Saturday. 

“Growing our service by connecting two iconic destinations on each side of the country is an important step in our bringing low fares and affordable travel options to more Canadians,” said Stephen Jones, president and CEO of Flair.

“We know there is a need for ULCC [ultra low-cost carrier] service as travel begins to return and connecting two cities that are year-round destinations will ensure Canadians can explore their country affordably all year long.”

He added: “Our low fares are an important step in restarting the tourism industry as they allow people to explore more, and both Ottawa and Kelowna are two attractive regions for domestic tourism.”

One-way fares on the new route could be as cheap as $59, Flair said.
