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.

Flair do sell connecting flights though. Now they allow you to book flight for routes like YYJ-LAS, YYJ-GDL.. with YYJ leg on Pacific Coastal to feed into their flight out of YVR.
And then there are all those crazy international options that I don't think anyone with their right mind would book with Flair... like YYJ-FRA, YVR-BOM, or even KIN-SIN
