Canada Jetlines has received conditional approval for flight attendant training from Transport Canada, effective immediately.

Final approval of the new all-Canadian leisure carrier’s flight attendant training programme will be granted once Transport Canada has reviewed the training conducted under the programme and it proves to be satisfactory.

Eddy Doyle, CEO of Canada Jetlines, said: “This is an important milestone in the Air Operator Certificate process with Transport Canada. Our first flight attendants will start their flight attendant training programme in April and are scheduled to have completed training at the end of May. We have an outstanding group of individuals who will become our first cabin crew at Canada Jetlines and who will bring the best of both safety and customer service excellence to our customers on board.”
