Flair Airlines says it will keep operating in Canada. Here’s how

Flair Airlines downplayed concerns Thursday that the ultra low-cost carrier could lose its licence to fly in Canada.Stephen Jones outlined steps the airline is taking to overhaul its board and refinance its debt to reduce foreign influence on the company.Flair is in the midst of a licence review from the Canadian Transportation Agency (CTA), which said in a preliminary finding last month that the Edmonton-based airline might not meet Canadian ownership requirements to fly in the country.The air industry watchdog said Flair’s Miami-based business partner, 777 Partners, might have “control in fact” over the airline, which would violate rules under the Canada Transportation Act. Flair Airlines could be grounded in Canada over foreign control concerns Flair has until May 3 to respond to the CTA’s concerns, or it risks having its licence suspended.Jones told reporters Thursday the company will meet that deadline to formally respond and added there is “zero chance” the company loses its licence on that day.May 3 is not a “drop dead date,” Jones said, but is rather a point at which the CTA is expecting a formal response.

So-called 'Don't Say Gay' bill puts years of fruitful relations between Disney, Florida at risk

ORLANDO, Fla. - The idea was presented to Florida lawmakers in a movie house outside Orlando 55 years ago, with Walt Disney, who had died less than two months earlier, helping make the pitch from the screen: Let Disney form its own government and in exchange it would create a futuristic city of tomorrow.That city never materialized, but Walt Disney World became an economic juggernaut with four theme parks and two dozen hotels, while its government retained unprecedented powers in deciding what and how to build, issuing bonds and holding the ability to build its own nuclear plant if it wanted.Now, five decades later, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is asking lawmakers to end Disney's government in a move that jeopardizes the symbiotic relationship between the state and company.
