CanJet is a Canadian low-cost carrier based in Halifax, Nova Scotia. It serves cities in eastern Canada and Florida.
The original CanJet was bought by Canada 3000 shortly before that airline's bankruptcy. CanJet began on June 20, 2002 as an independent airline. Originally the airline flew to three destinations, but has quickly expanded. There are plans to expand the airline's fleet of Boeing 737s from 6 to 20 by 2006.
In May 2005 the company began to expand into the western Canadian market with a flight between Calgary and Toronto, with plans to slowly expand to other western markets. In the wake of the bankruptcy of Jetsgo the company hopes to fill some of that company's market share, but also hopes to expand slowly to avoid the fate of other companies such as Canada 3000.
In April 2004, CanJet launched service to at Hamilton International Airport to fill a void left after WestJet shifted its eastern Canada hub to Toronto Pearson International Airport. Then in June 2005, two weeks after Air Canada Jazz announced new service to the airport from Montreal and Ottawa, CanJet announced it would end its service to Hamilton.
CanJet Airlines is a division of IMP Group Limited, the company employs about 350 people.
