Reading the press release carefully, it sounds as if the plan is for a single flight per day on all of these three new routes. This could mean that if your intent is to connect to another flight in Halifax, you could end up spending many hours trapped in the airport terminal at Halifax Stanfield. Flight frequency should be no less than 2x daily
EDIT - The flights will be 2x daily from Charlottetown, but daily from Moncton/Fredericton and Sydney. |
Nice of them to fly right over YSJ … we can wave to them as they fly by!
Honestly though, I’m not that worried YSJ being left out of this, as most of the destinations are places I’d be driving. Where I’m hopeful, is that this shows the NB government is at least willing to subsidize routes to NB airports.
Our local leaders and airport executives should be lobbying for a subsidized route of our own, perhaps a Saint John<–>St. John’s route, as Halifax isn’t the only airport in Atlantic Canada with transatlantic routes.
