"But Air Canada may be hard pressed to get the LCC off the ground in the early part of 2013 if it intends to the launch the carrier as an independent subsidiary.
The carrier has yet to apply for either an air operator certificate with Transport Canada for the LCC or to start the licensing process with the Canadian Transportation Agency.
Industry sources say that process typically takes up to 12 months to complete."

Re: Not a separate company, just another brand??????
Well, in the article it states that the LCC will have a separate management team. I think that's great, because if there's anything Air Canada needs to do in order to cut costs is to add more layers of management!

If it's not a separate company but another brand, good luck trying to convince the unions they should be paid differently.
Weeks away from announcing something mean nothing. They could be 51.5 weeks away from actually doing something.

Just wondering what happened to the OC for Canadian after the merger, might just be the simple matter of dusting off the one that's sitting on the shelf.Norwegianwood wrote:"But Air Canada may be hard pressed to get the LCC off the ground in the early part of 2013 if it intends to the launch the carrier as an independent subsidiary.
