“Vancouver and Montréal are two of Canada’s most iconic tourism destinations, with their rich cultural heritage and stunning natural landscapes. We are thrilled to provide an ultra-affordable option to connect these two beautiful cities,” said Merren McArthur, CEO of Lynx.

She added that Montreal and Quebec City have historically been underserved by low-cost carriers and Lynx hopes to change that. Travellers in Montreal can now travel to Calgary, St. John’s, and soon Vancouver with Lynx.
