Get ready, travellers! Canada's new "ultra-affordable" airline Lynx Air is having a daylight savings sale right now, and you can get up to 60% off select base fares.

On March 12, just before daylight saving time kicked in, the company announced the offer, which can be accessed with the promo code SUNSHINE.

"We may be losing an hour this weekend, but you won't lose any sleep over 60% off base fares!" the airline said via their social media pages.

Travellers can get discounts on flights all over the country between Canadian travel hubs like Toronto, Vancouver and Calgary.

The code is valid from Friday, March 11 until Sunday, March 13 at 11:59 p.m. MT.

Prices for tickets are already pretty cheap, with one-way routes between cities like Calgary and Victoria, Toronto and Winnipeg, and Vancouver and Calgary all costing less than $70 before the discount code is applied.

The low-cost carrier recently announced an expansion into more Canadian cities, with the network now reaching six spots in total: Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary, Winnipeg, Kelowna and Victoria.

Lynx Air launched in Canada at the end of 2021, promising low-cost fares, flexibility and an "ultra low-cost carrier model."

The company's first-ever flight will take off on April 7, 2022, and fly from Calgary to Vancouver.

Lovers of discounted and cheap flight tickets may also be pleased to learn that WestJet has announced plans to buy Sunwing, which it says means "new travel options" and "more affordable fares."
