cease operations on Feb. 26, it said on Thursday, as it struggles with rising operating costs, high fuel prices and increasing airport charges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite substantial growth in the business, cost reductions and efforts to explore a sale or merger, the challenges facing the business have become &#8220;too significant to overcome&#8221;, the company said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2023\/12\/air-canada-adds-tulum-and-charleston-to-global-network.html\">Air Canada adds Tulum and Charleston to Global

26.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lynx will seek protection under the Companies&#8217; Creditors Arrangement Act, a Canadian Federal Act that allows large corporations to restructure their finances and avoid bankruptcy, while allowing creditors to receive some form of payment for amounts owed to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related-topics\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div
