NextJet Canada
NextJet Canada was a virtual airline which for a short time connected several cities in Ontario and Quebec. In 2016, Nextjet Canada offered flights from Kitchener, ON; Peterborough, ON; Gatineau, QC and Montreal, QC. In the same year, the company ceased all operations.
Nextjet Canada did not own any aircraft; instead they leased aircraft from the operator and sold the seats to the public.
History
NextJet Canada was founded in 2016 by Tan Ahmed.[1] To facilitate flights from Kitchener, the Waterloo Region municipality agreed to contribute to start-up costs.[2] In May of that year NextJet began offering daily flights between Kitchener and Peterborough in Ontario and Montreal, in a rented nine seat plane.[3][4] At the end of May flights to Gatineau, near Ottawa were added,[5] although at that time information the company's website had not been translated into French.[6]
In the summer of 2016 NextJet suspended its flights because it had failed to attract enough customers on a regular basis to make a profit.[7][8]
