Bombardier Aerospace delivered the first of its new regional jet variant, the 75-passenger CRJ700 Series 705 to Jazz Aviation on May 27, 2005. The aircraft was the first of 15 CRJ705 and 15 CRJ200 aircraft ordered in September 2004. Originally the order had been for 30 CRJ705s and 15 CRJ200s, but was changed to 15 and 15, subsequently 15 Embraer 175 aircraft were added to the Air Canada mainline fleet. A 16th CRJ705 was added to replace a CRJ100 which was written off. The new aircraft undertook its first revenue earning flight on June 1, 2005 from Calgary to Houston. In mid-2006, the last Air Canada CRJ100 was transferred to Jazz.
On February 9, 2010, Jazz Aviation announced that it had finalized an agreement with Bombardier Commercial Aircraft for 15 Q400 NextGen turboprops with options for an additional 15 aircraft with deliveries to start in May 2011. They will be configured in a 74 passenger, all economy layout. The Q400s will be used to replace older CRJ100/200 models which are to be returned to lessor. The Q400s will be delivered in the new Air Canada Express paint scheme, and will be the first aircraft in the Jazz fleet to have Air Canada Express branding.

Like fairy-gifts fading away.”
