The charitable airline provides flights to and from Kingston for passengers who require medical attention outside the city.

It also provides free hotel rooms, ground transportation and meals. 

In an email to KingstonDaily.ca, Hope Air made more than 45,000 travel arrangements in 2024.

In addition to the barbecue, there is an online silent auction and raffle for two return tickets anywhere in the world WestJet flies.
