Re: Bargaining idea
I always wondered this. What is the “classic airline”? The classic airline was (from what I understand) an attempt by the company to spin off the DH8 classics into its own airline (kinda like rouge and swoop). In an attempt to make it another division with cheaper labour. What ended up happening wa...

that his little cog in the machinery is so much more important than the other cogs in the machinery that enable the big machine to work. Guess what...if we all took our cogs and went home the "big machine" would cease to exist. Without pilots none of that would exist. Baggage handlers, ticket agent...

Re: American Express (Premium Plaza) Lounge will now require a boarding pass
.....I see no issue with going in and having a bite to eat a couple times a month. How is that any different from a frequent business traveller at which the service is marketed to? I think you've answered your own question. It wasn't marketed as a "crew lounge". It was marketed as a business travel...

Re: Pilot Seniority Porting
most my guess is that it'd give someone an extra 8 or 9 months seniority at Jazz (maybe just enough to skip RES in YUL or not getting the base they want? Sorry...IMO 8-9 months is 8-9 months. For some that could mean not seeing an upgrade for years given the state of the industry. Mathematically th...

Congrats to JAZ MEC for circumventing the current seniority process at jazz. I feel for the folks who will be bypassed on upgrades from pilots yet to be on property

Re: Jazz Chief Pilots and DFO
They ask if you know who the President and CEO are. Colin Copp and Joseph Randell. That's really all you need to know. If they ask who the VP of Flight Ops is, that's Steve Linthwaite, and Director of Flt Ops is Cal Purves. I don't see them asking anything further than that. Awesome. I really appre...

Re: Air Canada's New Livery
From my understanding the blue paint job costs twice as much in $$$ AND weight on the A/C. The colour blue costs X $ and weighs Y...the sparkles also cost X and weigh Y. Now your paying 2X and 2Y to have a sparkly paint job than can not be retouched by maintenance when it starts to fall apart. Just ...

The only thing you would carry forward to the flight line is your employee number and travel seniority.
