Company Summary
Jump On uses components of the Hotwire and Groupon business models to bring straight forward low cost airfares to Canadians. This is achieved by contracting idle aircraft capacity from charter airlines at deeply discounted rates and passing the savings on to consumers (like Hotwire does with hotel rooms). In addition, Jump On flights depart only if a minimum number of seats are sold (similar to Groupon’s ‘the deal is on’).
