Looking for information on how the per diems work at Transat.

What are the rates and locations

Thanks

Depends on where you’re going, Europe or UK/Ireland, southern destinations, or domestic.

It’s paid hourly, from check-in to check-out.

If you are a fresh ATPL holder with 1500hrs, you'll be upgradable in 6 years. If you already have the hours between 4 to 8 years depending on the base you choose. What about a candidate with ATPL 2500-3000TT? I heard the upgrade requirement is 4000-5000 TT Flight ops will do an assessment based on ...

I'm curious. In the history of mergers, purchases, integrations, whatever we want to call them. Has any group ever been awarded bottom of the list in Canada? It’s under section 3 of “A Child’s Guide to Airline Mergers”. It’s never happened. No, I was wishing you good luck with whatever happens, I d...

Every Canadian business that took the Covid loans including the LEEF loans has had to pay them back with interest. I have friends whose business was decimated during covid and then crushed when the loans were called in. The fare repayment loans are a political animal and all the airlines have them ...

Has any other airline borrowed nearly a billion dollars from the government and not paid it back? AC, AT, Sunwing, Porter took “loans” during Covid, AC received $1.2 billion to refund pax, as far as I understand today nobody has fully paid back those loans. WestJet is required to pay Sunwing’s loan...

You are right. the political minefield and unfair ACPPA legislation that only Air Canada have to operate under are not fair. Air Canada is the only airline and possibly the only private company in the country that has to do business as mandated by the federal government in a completely political Ac...

Stop perpetuating the lie, you are WRONG! Here is another article from back then; https://www.nytimes.com/1988/07/21/business/air-canada-in-1.5-billion-deal-orders-34-airbus-aircraft.html The Air Canada announcement had been expected for several months, but was delayed until after the Canadian Gove...

The purchase which totalled $1.8 billion in 1988 was financed by the government of Canada while AC was still a crown corp. So is it still a fair playing field? Yes or no?

Nice to see the comradery. A few Canadian aviation companies are struggling. Even Jazz, selling off Falco to stem the debt tide, and erasure of AC flying. We are all in this together and should be supporting each other. Canadian aviation is FUBAR. No doubt. I also have no doubt in Air Transat to ri...

You've completely ignored what I wrote above: These layoffs aren't just because of winter slowdowns, because they're reducing capacity next summer as well. They're going to be operating fewer flights throughout the year, and it doesn't seem like those FAs will be recalled in the spring. Also, elimi...

This is just a return to mean. You've completely ignored what I wrote above: Transat is completely dropping three routes next summer, without adding anything new. They're increasing some frequencies, but also reducing others, so those balance out, and it isn't apparent that there's anything to repl...

AC's new contract leaves plenty of scope room for this exact scenario. I don't think that's an accident...it won't be long before Rouge is operating wide-bodies again. Hold on you're saying the company won't be able to renegotiate its debt mostly held by the Federal Government? Something does not a...

If the government wants to get serious about competition in Canada, they need to change the foreign ownership rules. I realize they’ve increased it to 49%, but nobody will invest unless they have a controlling interest. I couldn’t care less who owns the company as long as the pay cheque keeps coming...

You two need to get a room and break this sexual tension you have for one another.

Or maybe just PM each other because the rest of us couldn’t care less who wins your dick measuring contest.

I couldn’t agree more …

No one is arguing that free money wouldn’t have helped Transat but all those airlines you list were major flag carriers and Transat was a small money losing sun n fun before COVID and when it came time for the government to pick winners and losers in Europe there is no guarantee that’s Transat woul...

It’s only going to get worse for Transat as competition will keep getting more intense. None of their Canadian/international competitors (AF, BA, KLM, TAP, AC…) have any financial issues. Now that TRZ has retreated most of their operations to YUL/YYZ routes, they have become much more vulnerable. I...

It’s fun watching pilots pretend to be business savants. Pilots can barely negotiate a good contract in Canada .. let alone have a finger on the pulse of a business.
