August 15 1:15pm MT Update: It’s official, Canada Jetlines has ceased operations
Canada Jetlines, the Canadian airline that has had no sense of direction ever since it launched several years ago appears to be on its last legs. The airline which operates four Airbus A320 planes and has gone from trying scheduled service to charter flights to leasing their planes to other airlines had four top executives resign earlier this week. And, now an internal memo from one employee that has been leaked to GateChecked and OpenJaw, states the airline will be ceasing operations.
“Hello Crew, we have some difficult news to advise that we will be making an announcement that Canada Jetlines will be ceasing operations. I know there will be many questions and concerns but the immediate issue at hand is for you to be ready to depart tomorrow. We are working on travel plans at this very time and you will be advised details as soon as we know. Further details will be shared.”

Since its inception Canada Jetlines has struggled to find a true identity and purpose and ultimately that has definitely played part in would could be their demise. If they do go under as stated, the loss won’t be felt by Canadian travellers but rather their employees who may soon be finding themselves out of work
