They don't need to advertise domestic as the flight are full full full. Why try to sell something thats already sold.

Yeah,, its not possible to get on KFC. I think they are grandfathered in?

The one thing I am disappointed with Jazz is the amount of deductions that come off the paycheque. Aside from the usual federal tax, CPP, EI etc, the deductions for short term disability, dental, medical are HUGE. We have to pay 50% of our dental/medical which I was surprised. Also, no offence to A...

But at the same time, I'm sure Doctors don't give a discount when the patient dies, lawyers don't give discounts when they loose, why should airlines offer bereavement fares? Just shop for the cheapest price (its easy and fast) and buy the dam ticket. I would think the last thing someone would be wo...

So now that Toronto is expecting a cold snap and the ferries said they wont be able to run, how will porter get their passengers over to the island? Walk them across the ice?

One thing to keep in mind, most people think of DVT as a small blood clot when in reality it is usually 10 cm or much longer.. so its more like the blood in an entire vein clotting up (which happens when flow is restricted). Ever find yourself sitting in the flight deck, you've been there for an hou...

I’m fatigued!

Seriously, you plan your rest for your schedule, when you get extra legs added on.. I’m fatigued.
Or, if I’ve worked more than 14 days.. I’m fatigued.

Id say the music is playing in re-wind.

Wouldn't after negotiations be a little to late? AC is negotiating summer 2009,, new aircraft coming 2010? 787 in 2012.. You would think they would want 757 now to replace the 767-200s.

KFC was probably owed the most money for that plane, guess now it will go to Flair or the KFC leasing company.

September 24, 2008 Air Canada's fleet renewal plan has been dealt another blow as a strike at Boeing delays delivery of new fuel-saving wide-body aircraft, its chief executive said on Wednesday. Air Canada CEO Montie Brewer said the country's biggest carrier does not know when it will receive two Bo...

Sunwing canceled all their flights to Cuba (for understandable reasons) but are they returning the money to the passengers who bought vacations their?

How about this., Air Canada pilots layoffs canceled. Eight new hires on course in September.

Unions are what you make of them. You can have a union that says no to everything and demands the same.. or a union that works with management to solve problems. Unions aren't bad, militant management OR militant union leaders leaders are the problem. As a company, you get the union you deserve. WJ ...

Another Canadian outfit offering cheap service to the public by (in part) forcing sub-par wages and working conditions on their employees. This type of thing has been tried in Canada in the past. It hasn't worked before, I see no reason why it should now. Sub Par wages? try 300 000$ for some of the...

It will be something which allows easy transfer back and forth between Flightcraft and Flair.

can we please kill this thread, its really depressing me.

big deal, so the airport closes. There are may around the city which could pick up the slack.

AC and WJ pay what... 37000$ the first two years?

Agreed!

Just happy everyone is alright. Sounds like a go-around was the best call, just a shame about the spoilers but then we all make mistakes. ( I'm betting all the auto speed brakes were disabled on the 727s to save maintenance costs ... that would have automatically lowered the speed brakes when the th...

sunwing, skyservice,

I worked there ten years ago and found it was as MM says... but the sked was quite easy compared to WestJet's in my opinion. I hate flipping nights to days where at KF... it was at least mostly nights and I didn't feel nearly as fatigued. I wasn't a Captain so the schedule moved faster... progressi...
