All-Systems-Go For Swoop's June 20 Inaugural Flight

Receives Air Operators Certificate Approval From Transport Canada

Swoop has officially been granted its air operating certificate (AOC) approval by Transportation Canada. With Swoop's inaugural flight from Hamilton, ON to Abbotsford, BC imminent, the past few days have been filled with milestone moments for Canada's first true ultra-low cost airline.

An AOC affirms that a commercial air service complies with detailed and complex aviation regulations, related to:

  • Aircraft airworthiness;
  • Personnel training and licensing;
  • Flight and crew manuals;
  • Base of operations and scheduled points of service.

"Receiving our air operators certificate ticks the last check-box," said Steven Greenway, President and Chief Executive Officer of Swoop. "We're immensely proud of the Swoop inflight, maintenance and operations teams for getting us here. And we're ready for takeoff on June 20."
