Corendon ends cooperation with financially troubled Canada Jetlines

Corendon is experiencing financial problems with a partner, Canada Jetlines. The travel organization rented two planes from that company for flights from the airports at Maastricht and Rotterdam, but Canada Jetlines has ceased all activities and requested a form of deferment of payment. Corendon is now renting replacement planes for the flights that have already been planned from the Dutch airports.

"We will operate flights on schedule as much as possible to limit the inconvenience for our passengers. As of next week, Corendon Airlines will take over all scheduled flights of Canada Jetlines," Corendon stated on its website. The company assired that this will not lead to flight cancellations or delays. "We have been able to find enough capacity to solve this ourselves," a spokesperson told NU.nl.

Canada Jetlines announced earlier this week that it would "temporarily" cease all operations. The company, which has been flying since 2022, has been making losses and has been in constant need of new financing.

Corendon announced in April that it would rent two aircraft from the Canadian airline for several flights this year. Now, the travel organization is "forced to end the collaboration with Canada Jetlines prematurely."
