Re: 4 Flair aircraft seized

I have had a lot of conversations with lessors over the past few days. The news, I am afraid, is very bad. They all think Jones is a pathological liar and want to pull their aircraft out. Jones lying about Airborne seizing aircraft just over a “five day delay” was the final straw because they all t...

Re: Flair Airlines - Planes seized

When I flew QYT to YYZ in January I chose not to use Flair because I couldn't risk being stuck there for a week! Flew home West Jet for double the price. Not sure the average consumer knows enough about airlines to make that choice. The fact that you think WJ doesn't cancel a shit tonne of flights ...

Re: Porter Airlines: First Officer - Dash 8

What’s the average wait time to hear back after applying? 1200 hours with multi pic time. Applied at the same time as other Q400 operators. At the point of accepting from porter competition, though porter was a first choice if offered. Encore is not Porter competition. Haha as much as some might sa...

Re: Flair Airlines - Planes seized

Probably the beginning of the end, they will have lost trust. Not to sure about this. The average flair ticket buyer would purchase the ticket again in a matter of months if it cost $75 round trip vs $299 one way with a major carrier. Sunwing issue in December is an example. Lots of public out cry ...

Re: 4 Flair aircraft seized

Looking at todays Flair flights, don’t see any cancelled flights. Meanwhile WJ has cancelled their YYC-YKF flight. Obviously this is very rocky for Flair at the moment, I’m holding some optimism. Any airline going out of business does no good for Canadian aviation. Shame on the ones on here rooting ...
