This is getting a little confusing. Canada Jetlines was to launch flights from Toronto to Moncton and Winnipeg earlier this month. That was pushed back to next week due to a delay in the airline receiving their license to operate. But now with today's press release from the airline, they will officially launch on September 22 with flights between Toronto and Calgary. Moncton and Winnipeg are totally gone - you can't even book these anymore. They make no mention of Moncton and Winnipeg being dropped, so I wonder about those people who booked travel on these flights if Jetlines is protecting them on other airlines or just providing refunds. I'll be honest, all these changes over the course of this past month and dropping routes before they are even started doesn't bode well for this start up. I wish them the best and hope they can get their act together here as they'll need it to gain the confidence of Canadian travellers. (Source Canada Jetlines)

British Airways will be adding a new Vancouver to London Gatwick flight for next summer that will complement their Heathrow service. The flight will operate six days a week (no flights on Tuesday) with their Boeing 777. Right now there is lots of award availability showing on this route for economy, premium economy and business classes. As with most BA redemptions to the UK via Executive Club the taxes and fees are high but for business class this can still be a worthwhile redemption. (HT Head for Points)
