‘It sucks’: After flying 4,500 passengers to and from Cuba last winter, Sunwing Airlines appears to have pulled its services from the Sault Airport for the upcoming winter season
Sault Ste. Marie Airport CEO Terry Bos told SooToday that Sunwing Airlines is not expected to return for the 2023-24 winter season amid an ongoing pilot and flight crew shortage.
Although Bos is yet to receive an official notice from Sunwing that the carrier will not be returning next winter, the Sault Ste. Marie Airport is not listed on the airline’s schedule. “The chances of them coming back this season are slim. They’re not coming back into regional airports this winter due to lack of equipment and manpower. It’s only the major hub airports.”
Earlier this year, Canada’s second-largest airline, WestJet, closed a multi-billion-dollar deal to purchase Sunwing Vacations and Sunwing Airlines. “It’s really a coincidence,” he says. “We weren’t anticipating losing Sunwing, whether they merged or not. Before the sale was finalized, they announced they were pulling out of Sudbury and North Bay last winter, but we anticipated that we were in the clear.”
