Canada Jetlines has entered a worldwide distribution agreement with Sabre. The long-term agreement means Sabre will distribute the carrier's comprehensive content for travel agencies and corporations through its travel marketplace.

The airline says it will leverage Sabre's ancillary services to provide travel agencies around the world with access to the airline's complete range of travel products, including fares and seat availability.

"We are pleased to have achieved this agreement with Sabre, which broadens Canada Jetlines' distribution capabilities to meet our international growth objectives," said Chief Commercial Officer Duncan Bureau. "This partnership aligns with our projected distribution strategy of providing the right content in the right channel. As a leisure airline, Canada Jetlines recognizes the key role that travel agencies play in our success."

Canada Jetlines will begin operations out of Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ), with its first scheduled route into YYC Calgary International Airport on September 22. Biweekly flights will operate Thursdays and Sundays out of Toronto (YYZ) to Calgary (YYC) from 07:55am EST 10:10am MST and returns from Calgary (YYC) to Toronto (YYZ) 11:40am MST - 17:20 EST.

Frequency will increase to three flights per week, Thursdays through Sundays, starting later in the fall.

Preferred travel agents can earn up to 10% commission on all Canada Jetlines base fares.
