Discount carrier CanJet cancelling scheduled service as of Sept. 10

from http://www.cbc.ca/story/money/natio.../05/canjet.html

The Halifax-based discount carrier CanJet Airlines is pulling out of the scheduled airline business next week to focus on its charter business.

"With the rising business risks of operating a scheduled airline, I.M.P. has decided to suspend year-round scheduled airline service and focus on their increasing charter business," IMP chairman and CEO Ken Rowe said Tuesday morning.

He promised to offer alternative travel arrangements for anyone booked on CanJet flights scheduled after Sept. 10, the last day of scheduled service, or give full refunds to ticketholders.[/B]

He did not immediately disclose how many employees would be affected. Some will be offered positions in IMP's other aviation businesses.

CanJet is a division of IMP Group Ltd., a privately owned diversified group of companies headquartered in Halifax with extensive interests in aerospace, aviation, manufacturing, health care, industrial marine products and hotels.

The airline was founded in 2002 as an alternative to the mainline airlines. It flies 10 aircraft to Atlantic Canada with service to Halifax, Moncton, St. John's and Deer Lake.

It also flies to Toronto, Ottawa, Calgary, Vancouver, Montreal and to the Florida resorts of St. Petersburg, Orlando and Sarasota.
