:pushpin: Why should this airline be added?
itโ€™s defunct but Flybe is in WoA even though itโ€™s defunct, so why not Lynx Air? It operated real Canadian routes like YYZ โ†’ YYT, and flying it felt a lot like WestJet. Could be a fun addition for players who enjoy historical or rare airlines! and it could be an event


Correction on the ICAO code. Lynx had ICAO airline code DAT. It was based in Calgary whose airport IATA code is YYC.

The airline originally began as โ€˜Enerjetโ€™ but the pandemic put that under and thus Lynx Air was launched.

IATA: Y9 / ICAO: DAT / Callsign: DAUNTLESS

(Same codes and callsign)

They operated the 737-700 from their founding in 2008 based in Calgary, using it on routes mainly into the Caribbean from many Canadian cities.

B737,

But in 2019 they had an order for the MAX 8 which eventually arrived with Lynx later. It was painted with a very snazzy tail but sadly never got to see service,

B38M,

Would at least make for a good event but I think if the 2 airlines were combined under Lynx Air and all 3 livery options were available, itโ€™d give more choice for players. Would be a great scheme to see at SXM.
