Re: Countries better than Canada for flying?

Im right in the middle of boomers and millennials. And I can tell you boomers are the most entitled generation that has ever walked this earth. I genuinely feel bad for anyone under 30 that has to make it work in this economy. So 'boomers' start at age 30 now? I kinda thought that was mid/late mill...

Re: Countries better than Canada for flying?

You are cherry picking your examples. You want to compare "the norm" in Canada, but you don't want to compare them to Ryanair in Europe, which comes very close to the norm in Europe, if such a thing exists. Hey good post.

Re: JetBlue's coming North

Americans wouldn't want our raggedyass routes. Other than between YVR, YYZ, YYC, YUL, it's all too thin and too far. Our cost of operations is too high between AIFs, taxes, taxes, taxes, and the rest of the fees... they would just syphon a few cash cows and leave everything else to die. Every inter...
