Re: Delta Warns Air Canada

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 ...

Re: ACPA LOA?

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...

Re: No vote full of regret

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?! :shock:

Re: Air Canada to cancel more than 9500 flights this summer …

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.

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...

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.
