DATE TITLE
Feb 11 /2008 Sunwing's Gander-Toronto service thrice as nice this summer

BACK TO PRESS RELEASES

Sunwing Airlines will offer three flights per week between Gander and Toronto for the peak summer season.

Sunwing will offer Tuesday, Thursday and Friday departures on its Boeing Next Generation 737-800 jet. The Gander flights are part of the company's coast-to-coast domestic program.

"We are pleased Sunwing will offer service to our primary market of Toronto for the summer peak," said Gary Vey, President and CEO of the Gander International Airport Authority. "This is Sunwing's third year of service at Gander and passenger response has been excellent. The flights begin June 5 and run right through until Halloween. The service provides great connectivity for passengers and Central Newfoundland tourism operators."

Bob Sime, Sunwing's General Manager Atlantic Region, states: "Providing affordable, convenient flights between markets in Atlantic Canada and Ontario is a core part of our business plan. We have enjoyed good success at Gander and are pleased to return this summer."

Sunwing Airlines and Sunwing Vacations are also offering departures from Gander to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic and Varadero, Cuba this winter.

Sunwing Airlines prides itself on offering travellers a host of inclusions most other airlines now charge for, such as a choice of hot meal with wine, and inflight entertainment. All flights include at least a snack and bar/beverage service, and on flights over 3 1/2 hours there will be a choice of hot meal served with wine and inflight movie, all included in the ticket price.

Sunwing's domestic flights are now ready for booking. For more information, visit www.flysunwing.ca or call your local travel agent.
