NewLeaf airline launches

New Leaf, Canada's has officially launched, and they've released their route map, including flights to and from Kelowna.

From Kelowna (YLW), the available destinations are:

Regina, Saskatchewan - $178 CAD roundtrip including taxs
flights departing on Mondays and Sundays
flights returning on Mondays and Saturdays

Saskatoon, Saskatchewan - $178 CAD roundtrip including taxs
flights departing on Mondays and Fridays
flights returning on Mondays and Fridays

Winnipeg, Manitoba - $235 CAD roundtrip including taxs
flights departing on Wednesdays and Saturdays
flights returning on Thursdays and Saturdays

Hamilton, Ontario - $289 CAD roundtrip including taxs
flights departing on Wednesdays and Saturdays
flights returning on Thursdays and Saturdays
(Hamilton is about an hour's drive from Toronto. assuming the traffic isn't terrible)

How does this compare to what the Air Canada / WestJet duopoly typically offer?

To Regina or Saskatchewan, it's about 40% below the typical price of $300 roundtrip.
They are also non-stop flights. Air Canada & WestJet require a stop in Calgary or Edmonton each way.

To Winnipeg, it's about 33% below the typical price of $350 roundtrip.
They are also non-stop flights. Air Canada & WestJet require a stop in Calgary or Edmonton each way.

To Hamilton, it's about 40% below the typical price of $500 roundtrip.
They are also non-stop flights. Air Canada & WestJet do have non-stop flights to Toronto. So it becomes a question of whether saving 40% is worth the hour drive from Hamilton to Toronto.

Bringing the low-cost carrier European model to Canada

New Leaf's low cost model is similar to what you find in Europe, meaning their prices include just the seat on the plane and a small carry-on item, and everything else (absolutely everything) costs extra.

Seats can be booked at www.flynewleaf.ca - and they begin flying on February 12, 2016.
