Re: Picking up opentime

An easy low-tech solution is to have a login limit per day (such as 10 logins), then time-out sessions after 15 mins. This would render bots useless.

Re: Swoop is Over Party

Perhaps YHM and other WO bases will become a WG base? It seems to make more sense to fly 189 seat aircraft than 174 over the ULCC orientated point-to-point routes. Perhaps WG operations will be more closely integrated by Oct, too?

Re: Be Ready

Here's another idea for WJ and AC. If taxes and fees are so much higher here than the US how about collaborating and working towards getting them lowered for airlines in Canada. I guess it's just a lot easier to stagnate salaries to make savings though. Like a high school bully they don't want to p...

Re: Be Ready

All valid points, but what is the data you would use to put forward an alternative interpretation and outcome and what is that alternative? Don’t overestimate the effect of WS on Onex in general it is only about 8% of their portfolio holding at it’s pre-Covid valuation, probably about 4% now and on...

Aerobod, You didn't answer the question You clearly stated in 2015 that Southwest pilots need to take concessions for the airline to survive The pilots did not. In fact, their contract is eons ahead of anything in Canada with more gains on the horizon Their company lost nearly a billion dollars in ...

Re: Be Ready

Aerobod It is true that Southwest have had some recent bumps in the road but compared to the toxic legacy of employee carnage we have seen over the last 10 years at the legacy carriers, they still have an enviable record. In any case this thread is about the potential of Westjet going Union. I stan...

Re: Be Ready

Ok, fair, like I said sometimes words can mean something other than. I would’ve said, “they” are still in mutual posturing but maybe that’s because I’ve never been part of the WJ group. I do hope WJ survives this as I can’t stand the thought of Flair being the new WJ, that’ll set us back a decade o...

Re: Be Ready

Issues with the economic analysis presented here: Information is dated. 3, and now pushing 4, years out of date. Assumptions based on growing uncertainty in the absence of real time data. Changes in corporate structure and costs since you left/covid. IE: There are a lot less office staff, no ground...

Re: Be Ready

You’re analysis failed to account for cumulative inflation. 50% over the next 4 years could only be a real gain of 20%. The overall increase to CASM you calculated at 8.8% doesn’t include inflation and also includes profit share, which in your predictions there wouldn’t be any. Trying to guess a pr...

Re: Be Ready

You obviously missed or didn't read the CASM/RASM analysis and if you did either didn't understand it, or are not willing to present a counter-point based on alternative figures or interpretation of the figure I presented (which I provided the info to where that public info was from). The snipets o...

Re: Be Ready

Aerobod, Your analysis is assuming the parties involved in the labour impasse take the labour dispute to mutually assured destruction. How often have you seen this happen? Realistically speaking do you really think Onex and ALPA are that stupid? ALPA has one of the largest and respected Financial D...

Re: Be Ready

Aerbod, I read your posts on CASM and RASM. Yes I understood them. They were very well thought out and articulated well. It’s why I believe you when you say you know quite a bit about the industry. Probably management. If you had stopped at facts I wouldn’t have called you out. The problem I have i...
