Swoop suspends flights from Hamilton to Las Vegas

Hamiltonians looking to play their hand in Las Vegas will now have to look elsewhere for flights to Sin City. Swoop spokesperson Julia Brunet confirmed in an email the airline will be suspending its route between Steeltown and Las Vegas after July 26 and through to Oct. 28. The suspension of the route comes a month after WestJet announced its plans to shut down Swoop, its budget subsidiary airline, and absorb its operations in late October. The Hamilton to Las Vegas route is the only local flight affected by the adjustments, according to the airline. Those affected can request a refund or rebook an alternate WestJet flight out of Toronto.
