From travelindustrytoday.com |30 JUL 2018: The Gander and Area Chamber of commerce says Air Canada’s plans to cancel their late night and early morning flights from Gander to Halifax doesn’t bode well for the local business community. It says the airline plans to reduce flights at Gander International Airport starting October 28th and continuing to May 1st of next year.
Chamber spokesperson Sonja Maloney says people needing to travel to Halifax on business must have the option of leaving on the same day.
She adds that central Newfoundland has become a major tourist destination after the success of the Broadway show ‘Come From Away,’ as well as the popularity of the Fogo Island Inn and the province’s iconic icebergs.
