Part of the problem is Flair business model does not work for smaller centers in Canada. You need to sell connecting tickets for any of this to work.
WestJet, Air Canada and Porter can make a city like Victoria work because they are connecting into a hub with onward connections. Flair I guess could perhaps make Las Vegas or Toronto work from here, but I don't think anything else would have the daily demand to fill a nonstop without connections.
Same thing for a city like Saskatoon.
