"Canadian Budget Airline Lynx Air Shuts Down, Leaving Passengers Stranded"
Canadian budget carrier Lynx, similar to Spirit Airlines or Frontier, will cease operations on February 26, 2024, without issuing refunds to ticketed passengers, advising them to seek refunds through their credit card companies. The airline, facing industry challenges such as rising costs and competition, has entered insolvency protection, leaving 500 employees at risk of job loss. While budget carrier Flair continues to operate, consumers impacted by Lynx's closure are left without recourse for ticket refunds.
