Canadian budget carrier Swoop launching San Diego

Canadian low cost carrier Swoop is adding new non-stop service to San Diego.

The WestJet backed budget airline will fly from Abbotsford, British Columbia, and Edmonton, Alberta for the winter season beginning October 4 through April 25.

Flights operate three times a week on Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays

Swoop is also adding winter service to Los Cabos, Mexico.

One-way fares from San Diego to both Abbotsford and Edmonton start at about $120.

"San Diego is an excellent addition to our winter line-up with a schedule that encourages weekend excursions by air," said Swoop spokeswoman Karen McIsaac.

WestJet launched Swoop last year and flies to domestic destinations in Canada, the US, Mexico and the Caribbean.

Its US network comprises flights to Las Vegas, Phoenix, Orlando, Tampa and Fort Lauderdale.
