We have all had situations where someone has been caught red handed doing something only to say it wasn't me or I didn't when you know damn well they did.

Re: Support Westjet AME's

Congrats WS AMFA members! This entire episode has brought stress and anxiety to your group, but you’ve prevailed and now reap your collective well-deserved benefits.

Re: WestJet breaks collective agreement with pilots.

“…..just like Swoop won’t do it.” Or did you mean….”Swoop won’t do additional mainline flying anymore.”? Were YYZ to…..PUJ, KIN, MBJ, CUN, PVR, SJD, LAS, FLL, YHZ, YXX, etc….not mainline routes?

Re: Flair Pilots

Lots of gloom being sent from non-flair pilots. I'm very curious on what the internal consensus is with the entire situation. Has there been any communication from executives to any staff? Heard that CEO addressed most employees and apologized for his role in the 5 day overdue lease defaults and op...

You probably posted that tongue in cheek, so I’ll give you the benefit…..but there’s absolutely no humour in that pal :| Not funny in the least when an employee group feels the need to post competitor recruitment links. Sadly, a lot of WS pilots who wanted to hang their hats up there for a career, n...

Re: TA Passed

Well, I guess if we all have better deals in 2-3 years when the Flair group negotiates the next CBA (fingers crossed for us) then it’ll be all smiles for those guys!! Gotta say, I’m not surprised at the outcome. Wish you all well, it’s a tough industry out there. I understand 80% eligible, 67% pass....

Re: New Flair Tentative Agreement

I suspect you're quite right, and I'm a bit out of touch. Regardless, while not perfect...not by a long shot....the TA will pass. There will undoubtedly be winners and losers in any TA.....and many quite vocal, as is their right to voice displeasure. However I'm sure the majority of those pilots ove...

Re: New Flair Tentative Agreement

Yeah…… the TA will pass. Ironic that posters here were, up to recent history, berating and belittling the pilots for working there and the ugly blight the green disrupters presented to the industry. Now, they’re pleading with the Flair group to be the shining beacon of hope and the champion for chan...

****How are they going to be staffing their flights at launch? Are these aircraft wet leases or will they be using their own flight crews from day one?****

Wet leased from Global X (Global Crossing Airlines) for the startup.
