Example Booking
Searching on Swoop's site, I found a one-way flight from Winnipeg YWG to Ft. Lauderdale FLL on the inaugural flight, Saturday, November 16, for $89 CAD. For the return flight, I found a one-way flight from Ft. Lauderdale back to Winnipeg on Saturday, November 23, for $16.15 USD. Combine the two flights and it's around $113 CAD roundtrip ($85 USD).
