Flair Airlines to Link Edmonton & Saint John for First Time Ever

Flair Airlines has announced the first-ever nonstop commercial air service between Edmonton International Airport (YEG) and Saint John Airport (YSJ). 

Launching June 15, 2027, the new route will open new travel opportunities between Western Canada and southern New Brunswick.

Taking off just in time for summer travel, the route will operate twice weekly, giving travellers in Alberta and New Brunswick more affordable opportunities to explore the country, visit loved ones and travel for business.

Flair says Saint John is one of Edmonton’s largest Atlantic Canadian air travel markets, with most passengers currently connecting through Toronto. Flair’s new service will eliminate that connection.

“Canada has so much to discover, and we want more Canadians to have the opportunity to experience it,” said Len Corrado, CEO of Flair Airlines. 

“We’re proud to be the first airline to connect Edmonton and Saint John nonstop, bringing two great Canadian cities closer together. Whether it’s visiting family, exploring somewhere new or making an important business connection, we’re giving Canadians more opportunities to spend time in the places and with the people who matter most.”

The new Edmonton–Saint John service will operate twice weekly, with introductory one-way fares starting at $199 CAD for a limited time in both directions (YEG–YSJ and YSJ–YEG).Flights will be available to book at flyflair.com beginning October 15, 2026.
