First time booking tickets to Canada, I was assigned to fly with this company that I never heard…read moreof, but it seems like a deal comparing to Air Canada, so I decided to go with it, as I landed in San Francisco airport, I looked on the board for my flight with Flair but nothing showed like my tickets indicated at 9 AM boarding time, instead I saw Air Canada to Edmonton at 11 AM.
I didn't assume that was the right flight, but still neither the airport nor my itinerary can confirm about the boarding gate, yet the flight still said on time without any changes.
Finally I did my own research on Google and found out Flair is located at International Terminal Gates B, I took a screen shot of it but still had doubts, because my time was running out, but I didn't have a choice, not to stay at Air Canada gate, yet if my instinct was wrong I could miss the flight too, I decided to travel by foot to International Terminal, and yes the board over there did show my Flair flight, what a relief.
I also found out that it is a very small operated airline which using smaller aircrafts to travel to Canada, why are they still in business, I have no idea, I got on the plane, my seat was 33, as I sat down I saw all the seats cover on that row said Do Not Occupy, I was a hit confused until flight attendant told me the seats were damaged and they upgraded me to 12, almost front row, yet this airline was so cheap they could not serve anything for free during 3 hours flight, no snacks, no drinks, storing overhead was too small, their seats didn't recline back, they also had a whole food menu with pricing indicated, I mean they spent enough time to create a menu, but they don't actually give you to try any of those for free, when I flew on any international flights in the past, even if it was 1-2 hours duration, they still gave you something to eat or drink without charging you, it is just too many holes that beyond fixing here, plus countless bad reviews on Yelp.
Just imagine today I was not the only one who checked in online with Flair and received my boarding pass with no gate, no help, no communication whatsoever, it would be at least 10 people will not make it to the plane on time, and I can confirm that before departing the pilot did announce the number of passengers didn't match, he was waiting to see the headcount would change but maybe people just gave up hopes finding the gate destination.
If you ended up booking Flair in the future and you landed at SF airport, please read my review, you will find the location of Flair at International Terminal B, good luck and safe travel
