Swoop has announced an expansion of its domestic network, with the addition of 14 new nonstop routes, including service to Deer Lake and St. John’s, NL, and Saint John, NB, plus six new routes and capacity in Ontario and the Prairies.

Swoop is also growing its fleet from 10 to 16 aircraft with the acquisition of six new Boeing MAX 8 aircraft. The carrier will begin receiving all six aircraft this summer in anticipation of ramped up demand in the summer months.
