This will build on the existing partnership between Menzies and Flair at two key Canadian stations, with Menzies having supported the carrier at Toronto Pearson International Airport since February, and at Saskatoon John G. Diefenbaker International Airport since August 2020, where the Menzies team is currently preparing for flights to restart in May.

Menzies already has a strong presence in the Canadian market across the ground services, cargo services and fuelling sectors and will now be operating at 21 airports in total.

John Redmond, Executive Vice President – Americas, commented: “It is with great pride that we announce the expansion of our partnership with Flair Airlines across Canada. These new contracts demonstrate Flair’s trust in Menzies to support their growth ambitions, and are testament to the excellent standards of service that have been provided on the ground by Menzies professionals at Toronto and Saskatoon.”
