What's the deal? I haven't heard anything yet? Can you please attach a link to your paranoia?jjj wrote:I find it interesting how the total capacity reduction seems dismissed by so many.
AC dangles a juicy carrot and hundreds of guys go for it as they welcome a bit fat whipsaw.
This deal stinks.

Re: New CPA and flowthrough to Air Canada?
@loopa Jazz is only sinking if the water level drops due to like-minded pilots like you keep taking jobs at cheap companies like Sky Regional, Georgian and like you say, eventually Jetlines. Jazz has a pension, a strong union, and probably 1200 or more pilots who dont want to flow to AC and just wan...

Re: Any hiring news??
Why would anyone want to board a sinking ship? What report did you read? Someone once said: "If you have the chance at any flying job, take it right away. You will progress your career a lot quicker than holding out for anything in particular at that stage." Reference: Krimson, not so long ago. Mos...

Re: New CPA and flowthrough to Air Canada?
We don't know who will pick up the slack from Jazz, but my bet is with the three other AC regionals, and maybe even a new one. There will likely be a lot more progression for pilots there. Safe flying! Very good post. Don't mean to go off topic, but it kind of starts a new debate where Jetlines and...

You might consider applying to Jazz! From what you say, it will be a faster from Jazz then from your position!
Don't ask me for a reference!

Re: Jazz pilot migration
Will ACPA welcome Jazz pilots with open arms? Do they still have a say in the matter? Or did they cash in their opinion when they signed the new agreement?
This will be interesting to see play out!

Re: New CPA and flowthrough to Air Canada?
Yes, the first reaction is "good news", but all we know is that Jazz will not die in 2020. Good for Jazz!
Who at Jazz will it benefit? Pilots? Management? Senior? Junior? Only the TA will tell!

WestJet will purchase the terminal, then purchase Porter in their initiative to compete in the East.

Re: Proposed Flight Crew Fatigue Regs
If it did, if the truth of fatigue VS performance ment anything in the real world of Canadian aviation regulation; pilots would be legislated, restricted, to working an 8-eight hour day. Not a Flight-Duty-Day, Not Duty-Hours, but a "WORK-DAY". An 8 hour duty day? How would that possibly work in Can...

Re: Congratulations Jazz
For those Jazz pilots...do not take concessions what-so-ever for the next contract. If AC needs more regional flying, they know who to hire! Neither Sky Regional, nor Georgian, nor any new start up, can complete the increased flying AC has planned to be an International player! Care to elborate? Sk...

Re: Congratulations Jazz
Some would call it 'concessions', others would call it 'change'. Either way, status quo will not prevail for the CPA between CHR and AC nor will status quo prevail in the collective agreements in force at Jazz. I would guess that AC expects a degree of cost change at Jazz that mirrors what has tran...

An impressive recovery would be to offer unlimited passes for travel during cancer treatment! They bought a ticket on the flight and deserve the same travel of the other passengers!bmc wrote:Impressive recovery. I challenge any airline, anywhere, to top that.

Re: New Hire Bases & Commuting
As somone who's commute has always been on four wheels (well, sometimes two, but you get the idea).. How would commuting for a new hire work from YVR to probably YYC (or wherever I could be based?) Is it feasible? Jazz has a great commuting policy and of all the pilots who I know commute to work, i...
