Nah we don't learn. ACPA voted to allow unlimited narrowbody growth at B-scale wages during last reopener when the company is making record profits.

Domestic early starts we always get a breakfast, and as I said, if I want one, I can always get a meal or snack... but I prefer getting paid vs. the old system of not being paid when flying through meal times. +1 Give me the per diems anytime over meals so I can buy quality meals or groceries to pa...

Air France is giving up their A380’s + no expansion in YYZ for next 100 years due to environmental studies. I’m thinking bigger

If AC does end up buying TS, I don’t think there will be a liquidity issue for the airline. You will be fine

It takes 2-4 months to train a pilot on a new type. We are 5 months away from January. I don’t see a reduction to be honest.

I remember getting a nasty email when i worked in yyz. 5000$ fine if we didn't wear our hiviz vests. Next day our crew van a chevy astro white with red orange and silver hiviz painted all around it was crushed by a tug. Prez our driver was off for quite a bit. I all too often see the monkeys put on...

This aged well.

CEO is responsible to the shareholder. Given the share earnings/revenue growth and keeping CASM under control, he deserves it. As for pilots, it's up to the themselves *cough ACPA cough* to also get the compensation they deserve. But hey, during the last reopener, we voted to allow the expansion of ...

On a normal day it depends on your ticket fare/class you paid. The flexibility to change between ytz/yyz increases significantly when there are irregular ops (fog at ytz).

Who ever says they’ll be out of cash soon is misinformed.

I was off by a few months.

Sad for the employees involved, doesn't look good.
