Re: The end of Flair?
Problem is, he is so blind that the building is crumbling around him but he doesn’t see it, he’s just sitting at the table sipping on his koolaid. The “glitches” are frequent and not conducive to a successful outcome. How many people will think twice about booking with Flair due to these problems. ...

Re: OT opportunities?
Plus the economy is starting to slow. Sooner or later bookings and demand will start to drop off. Can only put everything on credit for so long. And those variable rate mortgages...... are coming up for renewal soon. :rolleyes: True. However from what I see and hear( through associations) traveller...

Re: Flair Suspending Growth Plans amid Delivery Delays and Debt
Cheapo Air is owned by Fareportal, not 777partners. When I tried to search flights on Flair's site it redirected me to Expedia. I had to reenter the city pair and dates and search. The first page of results were all Westjet and Air Canada flights. I had to scroll way down to find a flight that show...

Re: Flair Suspending Growth Plans amid Delivery Delays and Debt
If I am setting at a resort aka CUN,PUJ or PFR and Flair was my return fare, I would be very edgy at about now.

Re: Flair Suspending Growth Plans amid Delivery Delays and Debt
Representing the travelling public,this is probably a good thing. It saves the unsuspecting travellers from having worthless admissions when the show stops. Indeed. Protects People's Trust from holding the bag of customer refunds if Flair goes under, which also protects the customer. Still can't bo...

Re: Flair Suspending Growth Plans amid Delivery Delays and Debt
Hmmm another unpaid vendor finally pulling service? Seems odd to me that these "glitches" (ADP and now this) start happening when Flair's payment processor is withholding cash until services are rendered to the customer stopping Flair from using tomorrows bookings to pay todays bills. Representing ...

Re: Flair Suspending Growth Plans amid Delivery Delays and Debt
At some point in time in this country- second largest land mass and 40th spot in population- there will have to be a realization that ULCC model can’t work. We are not the EU with close impact high density structure supported with a population nearing 500m. Flair is covering most of domestic Canada ...

Re: Flair Suspending Growth Plans amid Delivery Delays and Debt
I feel bad for the flying public who certainly will be caught up(again) in another ULCC meltdown, Flair has been admitted to the aviation palliative care unit not far from its last breath. There are going to be some unnerving gulps from the employees on pay deposit days, needless to say - sadly

Re: Flair Suspending Growth Plans amid Delivery Delays and Debt
This could be a very crucial time for Flair operations in that with the sudden demise of Lynx the travelling public may stay away from ULCC travel with its associated risks. It is in the public domain about cancelled vacations, stranded with additional costs to get back home and refunds of invalid f...

Re: Flair Suspending Growth Plans amid Delivery Delays and Debt
Has to be unsettling for the employees there who probably have inside knowledge and read what’s going on with their employer in the media.

Re: Flair in hot water with the CRA
How long until they run out of money completely? Has to be kinda unnerving for the current employees and one has to feel for them should things go astray down the road. Having said that where there’s smoke there’s fire or a pretty decent hot spot and for the sake of the people at Flair, hopefully i...
