TORONTO — Swoop’s full schedule of flights to the U.S. will take off tomorrow now that the ******* has received the last of its approvals to fly south of the border.

On Oct. 19 Swoop announced that its U.S.-bound flights from Hamilton, ON and Abbotsford, B.C. were on hold until Oct. 27. The low-cost carrier was waiting on one final approval required to operate to the U.S.

Swoop first announced its new U.S. routes back in August. The 2018/19 winter lineup includes flights from Edmonton, Hamilton and Abbotsford to *********, Phoenix, Fort Lauderdale, Orlando and Tampa Bay.

Flights between Edmonton and ********* from Oct. 19 to 26 were minimally impacted as Swoop had leased a WestJet aircraft to operate the flights.

Swoop apologized and set up a support team who reached out directly to impacted travellers to offer rebooking options or full refunds.
