What does that have to do with A320's or B767's at Jazz Air?

Easy...if you haven't heard a good rumour by noon (or 11:29 in this case) start one!What does that have to do with A320's or B767's at Jazz Air?
"The ability to ditch an airplane in the Hudson does not qualify a pilot for a pay raise. The ability to get the pilots, with this ability, to work for 30% or 40% pay cuts qualifies those in management for millions in bonuses."

Pffffffft....... doesn't mean much of anything. But they better get even more imaginative on their business model. Air Canada is likely going to pound Jazz into the dirt and leave it to rot in a few years.

Odds are that the TC operation is expanding or more charter work is coming down the pipe.

Re: A320 and B767 for Jazz pilots
I heard that four A380 are on the way to Canada, subleased from Emirates! I will give EK access to Canadian market and destroy any competition!!

Re: A320 and B767 for Jazz pilots
Just to stir the pot a little, why would we need scheduled service for a charter operation? Does TC have any sheduled service to any destinations. Also the entire CTA application mentions specifically U.S service.
I believe I predicted about 6 months ago that AC will divide into to separate entities, International and Domestic, and then sell the domestic to Jazz. Welcome to the BOTL my Air Canada brothers and sisters

Re: A320 and B767 for Jazz pilots
With the approval, what it allows is us being able to carry pax from say Yyz-yul load up more than head south.
Just as sunwing does now. As it stands I believe right now webcams ferried the aircraft to domestic destinations to get pax.

Re: A320 and B767 for Jazz pilots
yea, but WJ does it's own flying. Jazz is and will only be a CPA type company, so imho any other work jazz gets is great, but AC will always be it's main source of flying and should probably focus on also making them happy and not just pissing them off every chance they get. With sky regional in the picture things can easily flip come 2020." Pffffffft....... doesn't mean much of anything. But they better get even more imaginative on their business model.

Re: A320 and B767 for Jazz pilots
The only ones getting pissed off are ACPA.
Sky Regional is one the reasons Jazz (Chorus Aviation) is focusing a lot of effort into expanding into other flying. Anything outside the CPA has no affect on the CPA flying so no attention is being diverted at Jazz.
If you read some of my previous posts on the matter you will see me state time and time again. You NEVER mix emotions with business. This is why line pilots should never run a company. ACE doesn't care about TC, charter flying or anything related to Jazz and flying outside the CPA, only ACPA does. ACE's focus is on the CPA flying whether it is flown by Jazz or someone else, that's it. Dollars and cents, on time performance and the bottom line, that's it. If you think otherwise you're nuts and it's a good thing you don't make any day to day business decision.

Re: A320 and B767 for Jazz pilots
Teacher, isn't ACE's investment share diminishing quickly. With that, goes its influence. Ihave no doubt that you are correct in regards to their focus on revenue, profit and the likes, but the times are changing. AC seems to be more focused on LONG TERM viability.........how this manifests itself will be open for debate.
Re: A320 and B767 for Jazz pilots
Agreed, ACE's focus will be on the long term and that "long term" means cutting costs both in ACE and by suppliers like Jazz. When you really think about it nobody at Jazz is surprised by the Sky Regional move. I even heard one ALPA rep say they were suprised it took them this long to do it. All this really emphasizes the fact that the best way for Jazz to survive and grow is to diversify into other types of flying for other careers or ourselves if and when the time is right.tailgunner wrote:Teacher, isn't ACE's investment share diminishing quickly.

Re: A320 and B767 for Jazz pilots
If the long term plan is to be done with Jazz and seek other regional uplift .. I think it will take longer then 10 yrs. Why do I say that? Look at the present Sky Regional deal .. we're only talking 4 or 5 airplanes between Montreal and Toronto Island, they've had 8 or 9 months to get this ball rolling, and they still won't be ready on time.
I understand its a semi-start-up operation .. but with all the smart people at Skyservice, i'd have expected better to be honest.
I'm interested to see if Jazz will have to start the service for the interm.

Re: A320 and B767 for Jazz pilots
Hmmm...I don't know about that. The ALPA MEC recently sent out a newsletter which mentioned that Air Canada had expressed concern regarding the allocation of resources between the CPA vs. Thomas Cook. If Jazz neglects the CPA they will find many more SkyRegionals in line to take their place.teacher wrote:The only ones getting pissed off are ACPA.
Re: A320 and B767 for Jazz pilots
The operations have different people work'n for them and there are no sharing of resources other than dispatch and crew sched I'm pretty sure. Jazz hired additional AMEs and contracts out the ground services out of T3. There's no diversion of resources and it would make no sense to do so since the CPA is still way ahead in terms of revenue.
Now, I'm just a mushroom line Peelot but from what I've heard and seen that is the case.
As for more Sky Regionals the only reason that is happening is cost cost cost as stated by a recent AC conference call. CR was asked why Sky and not jazz and his answer was straight forward, "COST". Any start up will be cheaper than a pre existing airline.
BTW, I just took a look at the ALPA Memos for 2010 and there are none concerning diversion of resouces from the CPA to TC.

Re: A320 and B767 for Jazz pilots
Jazz Air would be much better off financially if they were to operate as a stand alone carrier. AC knows this. AC needs Jazz more than Jazz needs AC.
...Seems they are going to remove the axe and the control column from the cockpits for security reasons.
