Re: Poll: What is the most embarrassing aspect of the Air Canada pilot contract?
AC Year 1 90.98 Year 2 98.60 (As of Sept 30, 2025) Transat Year 1 94.45 Year 2 108.71 (New TA) Don’t forget that Year 3 onward, there is only annual 900 hour guarantee. MBG can be as low as 60 hours for block holder and 68 for reserve. Will 4$ make a difference? No. However, the OP’s statement is f...

Re: For folks around my age (Late 30s)
AC and WJ cause AIDS. The smaller the 705, the better your quality of life will be. If the music for the musical chair stops in the coming 5 years, you'll be better off at PD than AC or WJ. If it doesn't, will you? Terrible advice. You're better off at Porter if the music stops in the coming 5 year...

Re: BA versus YYZ controllers
It's an example of controller burnout, and unfortunately, it is happening more and more now. You can hear it in the voices of many controllers all across Canada. They are tired and their fuses are short. Put aside the politics and opinions on how it's gotten to this point; we, as professionals, nee...

Re: Pilot Hiring 2025
Interviewer here: 1 class / month all summer, 2 classes per month starting in the fall, no slowdown in hiring planned as of now. Do you sit in on the Article 7 meetings? Just to make it full circle and obtain honest feedback. I was not. Good to know (or not) that it’s a one way trajectory.

Lol...I don't think there will be AC pilots leaving for Flair unless there is a reason like they want to live at base... But the real point is...that a Flag Carrier pays less than a ULCC. This is a point of professional pride. Going to Air Canada should be a no Brainer moment...but it's more like "...

You know if there ever was a time for all Canadian pilots to band together to improve WAWCON nationally, it's now. Instead we pretend to do it but still revert to bickering and defending our respective carriers, throwing shade any chance we get at each other. We will never get what we truly want, o...

This should be extended to Jazz pilots that joined AC in 2022 as well. Plenty of Jazz pilots interviewed at AC in late 2019/early 2020 and were in the hiring pool when COVID hit. Instead of AC re-interviewing and hiring these pilots first when hiring resumed in the spring of 2022, Jazz held onto ma...
