The low-cost Canadian carrier Flair Airlines is back with an eye-catching promotion: $1 base fares to Canada from the U.S., Mexico, Jamaica, and the Dominican Republic.

Here’s what you need to know before you book.

Fare Details

Flair Airlines is offering fares from across North America to Canada for just a $1 base fare.

It’s important to note that the $1 base fare is just that: the base fare. You’re still on the hook for taxes and fees, which can vary in price depending on your route. Still, this is a fantastic deal, as several hot-spot destinations are included in the deal, such as Cancun (CUN), Orlando (MCO), Montreal (YUL), and Toronto (YYZ).

You can play around with a few dates and book directly through Flair.

Class: Economy
Route: Select cities in the U.S., Mexico, Jamaica, and the Dominican Republic to Canada
Dates: Flexible
Rates: As low as $1 (plus taxes and fees)

Flair is based in Edmonton, Alberta, and has been operating since 2005. The airline serves dozens of destinations across North America and operates Boeing 737 aircraft on most routes.

Bottom Line:

Flair is able to keep costs low and offer bargain fares by charging customers for things like seat assignments and checked baggage. If you plan to book 1 of these deals, you’ll need to factor in any ancillary purchases you may need to make.

How To Book

Tickets are now available at FlyFlair.com.

The cheapest tickets appear to be from Las Vegas (LAS) to Calgary (YYC), with tickets on this route starting at $15 one-way after taxes and fees.

Final Thoughts

Flair’s $1 fares certainly got our attention, and the airline didn’t disappoint. With taxes and fees added, the cheapest tickets start at just $15 one-way. Of course, that doesn’t include baggage, meals, or seat selection, but if you’re traveling light, these fares can’t be beat!
