Some passengers travelling with Sunwing Airlines have finally made it home after repeated flight cancellations and delays, while other customers who were stranded found their own way back home.

The Toronto-based travel company has been struggling to bring hundreds of passengers home from destinations including Mexico after severe winter storms disrupted its operations over the Christmas holidays. Sunwing announced on Dec. 29, 2022, that it was cancelling the flights in airports in Saskatoon and Regina, Saskatchewan, due to “extenuating circumstances.” The cancellations went into immediate effect and applied to travel from both airports up until Feb. 3, 2023.
