They aren't saying outright how many they are losing from the list, how many didn't come back from furlough, how many applications aren't on file, but but the fact is that the shine on the Ol' AC Wings is gone for everyone but 30 year WB CAs. I just spoke to a AC 777 captain who is in talks to fly ...

Not to mention both companies are in completely difference shape as compared to before.

Wow Great unity show by the AC pilots for the junior pilot. The 4 years flat pay stay. (or 5 and a half for the furlough guy) What a great achievement, What a chance the junior pilot have to stay another 4 years on flat pay, must feel great for them right now! And good to be in Westjet Encore, they...

If you think a no vote will shut down future expansion, think again. More than employees, the board is accountable to the shareholders. There is zero chance they will announce a reduction in flying (revenue) next year. They have to figure something else out… maybe better compensation?!

There is simply no choice, operational reliability takes precedents. A recession will be a cakewalk compared to what the airline industry went through last 2 years. Yes some companies will not make it through but that’s always happened in cycles.

I should buy a lottery ticket

How is the pass services in other countries if anyone has experience? This is embarrassing for the worlds most expensive airport. Third world country rating.

They also fly out of YUL. Close to 13 flights a week I in total to Delhi between the two airports!

Here I was refusing every draft call in solidarity…..
holy $hit…

Yup, we lost a lot.

From the CDC website: What types of SARS-CoV-2 test are acceptable under the Order? Passengers must be tested with a viral test that could be either an antigen test or a nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT). Examples of available NAATs for SARS-CoV-2 include but are not restricted to reverse trans...

That’s official list price. Probably half that given how desperate Embraer is for a sell.

They made it official:

I’d imagine most pilots will get recalled in the coming months? That’s a good amount of flying.

I would consider that a good sign for our colleagues at TRZ. I would imagine training ramping up and some potential touch n go’s to certify training captains.

Try booking an AC code flight out of YTZ prior to July 20.

Maybe next time you will believe me.

My apologies for doubting you.

LOL... AC Pilots are such idiots. Going on 18 months of 40% wage reductions plus they are giving up permanent concessions... For what? To save the company money so that they can rolll out $20million bonuses to the executives? They're paying the bonuses with your concessions jackasses! Perfect timin...

Probably thanks to clinics in Florida lol

With all that incompetence, the libs will still win a majority next election.

That was conditional on jets being allowed on the island.

Not happening. Porter is not in any financial situation to purchase new aircraft. What are they going to do with them? Park them next to the Qs? They would only get 2 E195 in 2022 and the rest in 2023. I think it’s a great move considering Embrear was desperate to sell and the timing would work in ...

Jets on the Island? Can't see that suddenly happening. I wonder if the geographic shift of slightly less people in the major urban cores has made the model of secondary airport hubs, ie Flair, a real opportunity. Interesting. I can see Porter finally starting YYZ operations. The market is there onc...

AC is starting flights out of YTZ June 21 i believe.

Nope.

Thanks, I’ll call AC management and tell them to cancel the flights.

I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for AC to resume YTZ operations.

Same timeframe - after Labour Day. At best.

AC is starting flights out of YTZ June 21 i believe.
