Montreal-based travel firm FlightHub is seeking protection from its creditors amid the COVID-19 pandemic that has wiped out demand for travel. The company operates two main brands, FlightHub in Canada and JustFly in the U.S. Just as airlines have been hit hard by the collapse in demand for travel caused by COVID-19, so has FlightHub. The company filed for protection from its creditors under the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act, the section of Canadian law that deals with insolvent companies. In total, that's 108 jobs cut from its previous work force of 200 people — 180 in Canada and 20 in the U.S.
