Re: Air Canada and Transat announce Updated Purchase Price at $5 per share
It’s funny how a handful of individuals, on either side of this proposed transaction although unverifiable because of their posting under anonymous handles, seem to think they represent the majority of their respective colleagues’ opinions...

Re: Air Canada and Transat announce Increased Purchase Price to $18 per Share
Transport Canada’s report is still on Minister Garneau’s desk, and the EU Competition Board (or whatever name...) are still evaluating the dossier.
How can the offer not be extended?

So I would venture that a huge part of AC’s cash comes from the same source as well, i-e unrefunded passenger tickets as well...

Re: Transat revenues drop by 99%, with 2,000 layoffs expected
Call me crazy, but buying a 750M house in which there’s a safe containing 576.4M cash with a garage full of cheap efficient airplanes with many more coming still seems a somewhat good proposition to me...

Re: Air Canada and Transat announce Increased Purchase Price to $18 per Share
Should be an interesting situation too - Is it really a recall when no one has been laid off yet? I heard from a buddy that since technically everyone there is collecting their meager CEWS, nobody is laid off. Does that mean that the current 321 pilots get called out of inactive status to work even...

Re: Air Canada and Transat announce Increased Purchase Price to $18 per Share
Surely you mean just two or three pilots... and they’re all on this forum. Never heard that kind of speech on the line or meetings!

Re: Air Canada and Transat announce Increased Purchase Price to $18 per Share
Why arent they calling them then? Hmm. Could it be because the program hasn’t even been officially approved yet?

Re: Air Canada and Transat announce Increased Purchase Price to $18 per Share
You do realize many of us have been there for well over 20 years and are also close to retirement but not quite ready to pull the plug? Our #1 is a founding member (1987) who still has 5 years of flying ahead of him, and he’s getting a layoff notice like the rest of us If they have been there 20 ye...

Re: DOH merge.
Overall if all goes ideally, no one will ever notice a reduction in seniority % or upgrade times if affected. Most, if not all should benefit especially in a new contract.
