We were tasked with getting 40 passengers from Montreal to a tournament in Calgary after their commercial flight was cancelled.
Flying a lacrosse team across Canada
When an airline strike caused widespread commercial flight cancellations, we were tasked with flying a junior lacrosse team across Canada to a tournament at short notice. After receiving the client’s call over the weekend just 24 hours before the group needed to depart, we got straight to work on a solution for the urgent request.
Our Solution
Routes: Montreal > Calgary
Aircraft: Bombardier CRJ-200
It took our experts just 10 minutes to arrange an aircraft charter for the 40 passengers, leveraging our operator contacts to source a regional jet with last-minute availability.
Keen to ensure their journey was as smooth as possible, we arranged a complimentary transfer to collect the group from the airport in Calgary and drive them to their hotel.
Everything ran seamlessly on the day of the charter, with the team arriving in good time and going on to win the tournament!
