Flair Airlines has quickly gone from a small Canadian airline with a few old Boeing 737-400 aircraft to a growing ultra low cost carrier with a brand new fleet of Boeing 737 MAX 8 airliners. C-FLKD is the 8th oldest in the fleet and we were able to photograph this B38M on August 6, 2022 while plane spotting at Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ).
