There’s a response.

Who will step up and fund Flairs operations when, not if, when, flying demand slows.

Which it already has.

I'd give Flair a year. Possibly less.

Re: Stop the unfair UP Express price hike for Employees

For everyone complaining about subsidizing airport worker's trips to the airport,... Let's not forget that at nearly every airport there is a surcharge applied. Rental cars are often cheaper off-airport, taxies charge an airport pickup/dropoff surcharge and city busses also charge differently to go...

Re: Stop the unfair UP Express price hike for Employees

Alright, This is a complete waste of my time For someone who has to take the subway to union then the UP you're looking at over 10$/trip. At those prices people will decide to take the car 10/10 times even if it would have been convenient to take transit. Mine too. Why anyone would take the Subway ...

Re: Stop the unfair UP Express price hike for Employees

My take on public transit is that you want to maximize ridership capacity to 100%. At this point, it's already built and the fixed costs now are largely the same. The guy commuting on the TTC to Tim Hortons pays $156/month. If they worked at the Tim Hortons at the airport they now also need to pay ...

Re: Stop the unfair UP Express price hike for Employees

My thoughts on this.. that not one asked for. Airport employees should be offered a monthly pass at a rate that is affordable at minimum wage, or at least affordable to the average wage received working at YYZ. Only Airport employees, and not the guy commuting on the TTC to his Tim Horton's job in ...

Rookie of you served in the CF you would know it’s just a job. Being a pilot is significantly more dangerous then being in the CF today. There is nothing special about joining the CF especially as 031 pte bloggins. I see. This quote will age well. Remind me to shake your hand and thank you for your...

Re: Stop the unfair UP Express price hike for Employees

$7 is almost the presto fare of 9…. From 25c more then the the TTC to the price of 2 rides…. Time to start only paying one way…. As for discounts, Via rail gives forces members 25% off, that’s a crown corp. you can fish with no license in Ontario if you served. You can also go to federal national p...

Re: Stop the unfair UP Express price hike for Employees

Students, seniors are groups of people who get discounts at public places too. As they should. No one should ever argue that! Again, Why? I’d argue it. Seniors are the richest demographic out there. By far. Look it up. Not always, but in aggregate, massively. Students, I agree. Ps: I noticed you ha...

Re: Stop the unfair UP Express price hike for Employees

My $.02. We can’t afford carveouts. Anywhere. The system is broke, from transit agencies to cities. I am an advocate for (modest) user fees across the board for public services. To see a doctor, for an ER visit, and parking. For road usage, including by EV’s. Parking is stupidly underpriced in most ...

Everybody who has a YYZ RAIC gets a discount, I don’t say this, it’s literally on the website https://www.iamtorontopearson.com/offers Let me know when you answer the question in my first post.

Re: Stop the unfair UP Express price hike for Employees

Thank you for your reply, I don’t know you or know what your situation is, but I am going to make an educated guess that you don’t live in downtown Toronto. Taking the UP reliably gets me to T1 security in about 45-50 mins from my doorstep. If I was to take the TTC, I would have to take a series of...

Re: Stop the unfair UP Express price hike for Employees

I am curious why any selected group of employees should get a continued deep subsidy for their living / commuting costs. We all have them. Who should pay, if the user doesn't want to? Its 10 bucks to take the Go train each way from the suburbs downtown for everyone else. At least. Like to hear the ...
