Over the weekend, Swoop airline announced that it has carried two million travellers since its first flight took off in June 2018. To commemorate the achievement, Swoop presented an unsuspecting guest with a round-trip flight to anywhere Swoop flies.

The lucky traveller, Travis Pickering, was surprised by Swoop on-board a flight from Edmonton International Airport to McCarran International Airport with his wife and two children.

Since its launch, Swoop’s network has grown to serve 14 domestic, 10 transborder and four international markets, rapidly expanding the airline’s network across North America.

The new 2020 summer schedule is set to increase Swoop’s frequency to 328 ultra-low fare weekly flights.

Swoop’s base fare starts with just the seat, travellers can add the extras they want, and nothing they don’t.

In addition to the round-trip flight giveaway, Swoop also provided all travellers on the flight from Edmonton to Las Vegas with cookies, champagne and some fun Swoop swag.

From an initial fleet of three aircraft and a network of five Canadian cities, in 18 months the airline now has nine aircraft and service to 20 destinations throughout Canada, the US, Mexico and the Caribbean, with plans for additional fleet and service to more destinations in 2020.
