If you've been waiting for a cheap flight to come your way, look no further! Canada's new "ultra-affordable" airline Lynx Air is having a spring sale, and ticket prices start at $39 one way.

On Saturday, March 5, the airline announced that it's offering 50% off select base fares with the discount code SPRINGSALE.

Travellers can use the Lynx Air promo code to get discounts on eligible flights across Canada between April 7 and June 28, 2022.

If you've been planning multiple trips, there's even more good news, as the code can be used more than once.

The low-cost carrier recently announced several new routes across the country, including out west. The network now reaches six Canadian cities in total: Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary, Winnipeg, Kelowna and Victoria.

As it's a new airline, introductory prices are still available. Right now, travellers can fly from Vancouver to Calgary or between Kelowna and Vancouver for less than $40.

Plane tickets between Toronto and Calgary start at $46, while you can fly between Vancouver and Toronto for $52.

With prices pretty low to start with, it means the 50% off base fare promo code could make your cross-Canada trip cost less than $100 round trip.

You'll have to be speedy though, as the code is only valid until 11:59 p.m. MT on Sunday, March 6, 2022.

The company announced its launch in Canada back in November 2021, promising cheap tickets, flexibility and choice to Canadian travellers with its "ultra low-cost carrier model."

The airline's first flight will be from Calgary to Vancouver on April 7.

Lynx Air may not be the only airline offering super competitive prices in the near future, either. Recently, WestJet announced its plans to buy Sunwing and says that means "new travel options" and "more affordable fares."

Happy travels, Canada!

These prices are confirmed at the time of publishing, but they can change at any time.
