Rouge rebranding?

What are you thoughts? This is one of the ex-Lynx aircraft. Looks like rouge might be rebranded under the AC express banner.

Re: MYID standby travel

They probably can't track myid listings but they do have to issue the zed ticket for you to travel on them. This can be tracked.

Yesterday we received an update that flying will be reduced in YXU, YYB and YSB this summer. So doesn't look good.

Re: Jumpseat Priority

The AC dress code is quite relaxed now compared to when I first started. You can wear sneakers and jeans in both cabins. This is a list of the only items not accepted. •Any type of beach clothing and beach sandals/footwear •Jogging suits, sweatpants/sweatshirts or work-out clothing ** •Tank-tops, t-...

Re: Stand-by Travel

Our service charge and taxes really do suck. I long for the day of the $20, $30 and $50 dollar passes. Its cheaper sometimes to book seats on other airlines confirmed than travel on passes.

Re: New Contract thread

Just curious about the ASM ratio. Does this apply only to CPA or all regional flying? Given the wording about AC having the ability to code share on Tier II flying. This is a non issue with the CPA. However if the Tier II return to flying again as we did pre-CPA is there a limit on this flying and a...

Re: Arbitrator sides with the company for machinists CBA

The biggest problem you guys have is having the ramp and cargo guys with you in the same contract. You should have your own agreement. You won't get the increases you should get until that is changed. The same happened with the Air Ontario group. As much as I hate the skilled and un-skilled referenc...

"When they force my FO to sit in economy while dead-heading with Jazz pilots sitting in first class– I will make them pay" Not to worry. All your efforts have paid off.

Cruizing,
No problem with doing the open jaw. You can have the listing on one PNR not need for two.
They system will consider it one trip so long as it is completed in 30 days.

Re: Advice on ZED fares

Cobra,
According to ACpedia NRT cannot issue employee tickets. We are handled by NH and
they do not have RESIII. In SYD you can have ZED tickets issued but the ticket office
is not at the airport. Its located at 264 George St. Sydney.

I'm thinking AC sould be looking over their shoulders when it comes to erosion of flying. AC will constantly be looking to cut costs. For years the only profitable parts of AC was the regionals, Aeroplan and MTC. Thanks to Uncle Milty they have since been sold off. The core AC flying was never that ...

Re: Jazz to become Air Canada Express.

They may need someone to fly the DH8. The Jazz people are probably going to
be busy with the Airbus and EMB flying.
