Re: Back at the taxpayer trough....
Its 2026. What happened at AC 15+ years ago is ancient history. The only airlines at the trough are Transat, Porter and soon enough, Flair. The other two have publicly said they have no need or interest in the handout. That these three are at the trough should surprise no one. That they are in need...

Re: Wearing sunscreen
Wear a long sleeve shirt and keep put the shade up if there's direct sunlight. The cockpit windows block most UV light, so you should be fine. I wouldn't listen to a guy advocating for long sleeves. Tells you everything you need to know. "block most UV" So you won't get a sunburn, just skin cancer....

Re: Air Canada: the numbers came back, but did the company?
Comparing the pre-Covid 2019 boom to the ElbowsUp era is not apples to apples.
Costs are way up but people are not spending as much, so it makes sense that the profit is down.

Re: Flair Pilots Better Starting & Top End Pay Now?!
Add that The best part about this is that: At $80k: Every extra $1 earned might cost about 28-31 cents in tax. At $350k: Every extra $1 earned might cost about 53-54 cents in tax So most of the large increase didn't even go to the Senior pilot, it went to the government. I can't believe with all tha...

Good grief how many freakin threads are needed on the topic of hiring at AC? There's about a hundred others and ya'll keep adding more. Your lack of initiative in doing a bit of reading is astonishing. Definitely not qualities AC or any other airline is looking for I'm sure. Stop being lazy, be the...

Re: Air Canada breaks negotiated 50 aircraft Rouge cap
Is this a flight attendant forum? There's no 50 fin cap as far as pilots are concerned. There's a ratio to mainline narrow bodies and it would be north of 100 aircraft. It's the same job and pay at this point from the pilot perspective. There's nothing new here either, fleet plans have showed 52 73...

Interview -> Medical -> Job Offer Wait Times
I have heard of several different timelines for the interview to medical to job offer wait times.
To those who have recently been hired (or rejected), what was the wait time between the different stages of your hiring process?

Re: New hire experiences
A lot of FAs are wonderful people to work with though. The vast majority of them actually. CUPE may have flaws but they stood up to Section 107 after our union was too chicken to do it. For that all Canadian organized labour groups owe them a huge thank you. All I think of when I hear CUPE is Fred ...

YUL and YVR are "smaller" by comparison (but both are bigger crew bases than YOW, although YOW has the maintenance hangar). They won't be closing anytime soon.
