Lol, you guys are obsessed with the wrong people... Maybe all of you should get off the fucking PCU and go play outside. I did it, and it feels great.

8 A330 exactly to get a final number of 12 in the fleet, they will keep adding the new A321neoLR as per the plan. These numbers have been specifically requested by Air Canada for their leisure division (of course you won’t believe it but it does not matter).

doest that mean some pilots will officially lose their jobs? heard the most juniors f/as are starting to get a redundancy letter. not sure about the accuracy though.

So…still no actual start date to resume any kind of operations? I see the aircraft sitting in YUL…sad. Feel very sad for our fellow aviators at AT. Wish them back soon… :D

Operations resumed; pilots in training as we speak. 470 pilots are now guaranteed to be recalled…
You’re not getting much info because we’re supposed to keep all info confidential; but it looks good.

Happy for you guys over at AT. It's a step in the right direction and seeing many airlines in Canada recalling such as Jazz, Porter, WestJet and now AT gives me hope we'll see our furloughed pilots at AC back soon. It would help if our union reps didn't fly nearly 100 hours a month, but cest la vie.

Do you guys have any info on when you could possibly see everyone back? I am going to guess that this is the first wave, and likely before everyone of the 470 is back there will be another announcement in the spring for the remainder. I hope so as I have a number of friends there near the bottom of the list and I'd be happy to see them all back working.

Recalls are steady till March for the 470 active positions (likely around 550 first numbers on the list). that will leave around 100-120 or so pilots laid off.

At least 545 recalled by March 17 2022.

Great LOU, 65 MMG with provisions for more pilots to be recalled if monthly average hits a target two consecutive months, straight time OT...

Theres a lot of training to do so most will barely fly after their sim. 65 hours to stay at home waiting for a full block is much better than CEWS...

Have seen TS NEOs out and about on the ramp all over the country over the past couple weeks. Great to see you guys flying again. Hopefully the YUL routes are doing well for you until international travel returns.

What is CEWS? I thought airlines would go bankrupt if they used CEWS...
