Because it was their idea.

We have a new company friendly captain rep who will fix everything

Our mec chair is usually quick to communicate, probably some internal affairs happening

Wednesday MEC tells the VP Flight Ops that they believe the pilots need to know without any further delay and are going to send out a comm. This was indicated by the MEC chair during the ALPA townhall on Thursday afternoon. The chair also indicated that there wasn't anything in the response from th...

The company needs to disseminate information first or at the very least in collaboration with the union which is clearly not happening. The union couldn’t wait a mere 24 hours and react accordingly? All somehow justified. That memo by the union created needless fear and confusion. And now my unders...

Wow. You guys managed to take a thread where the CP admitted they're not paying people properly by denying the definition of a calendar day, and you turned it into a rant about inflation and financial literacy.

Nice work gentlemen.

I think you might not win this one in arbitration, given the definition is a calendar day and for the purpose of that even though the duty begins on the second calendar day, it finishes on the third. You even state for the monthly total days worked it counts as three days, you seem to have it both ...

Very clearly racism/discrimination as well as white privilege. The woman occupying the seat that shouldn't have been there should have been removed, plain and simple. If for no other reason than the seat assignment has to be paid for and she's travelling with a small child. Of course, when a black ...

Yes, I very clearly said for pay, but as soon as you refer to DOH, people get their panties in a bunch and become stupid. Do you think airlines care whether you have 5,000 or 25,000hrs? The result of your idea would be that as you gain experience you become less and less desirable for employment, b...

Fabulous flying, but the shots of the attractive but concerned (later, cheering) women are rather gratuitous. Really? That's what you took away from the whole thing? Two shots of Chandra Patey and presumably the pilot's partner. Heaven forbid. How are we supposed to focus on the flying when there's...

My guess is Flair is done. The budding banking crisis all but ensures weaker co’s will be impaired Rookie has predicted 17 of the last 2 recessions :smt040 Rookie knows more about being a commercial pilot and the commercial aviation industry than the average commercial pilot does. Gotta assume he's...

So why wasn't FLKJ seized as well? Last it flew was this morning. If the lease wasn't being paid and it's the same lessor that already took action and claims the company has been in default on all loans for months, why wasn't that plane seized? I'm not disagreeing ThinMargins has said some credible ...

Random forum poster that only joined 21 Feb this year, yes lets beleive all he says !👏 Normally your sarcasm would be valid but thin margins asked about Flair defaulting payments on one of the 4 tails that were seized with the correct registration 3 weeks ago. Check their previous posts from Februa...

Who are you? How do you have so many connections with lessors? Why should anyone believe you?

Honestly if I missed my car payment by 4 days I'd expect maybe an angry email, but not a repo.

Whether WJ was involved or not a repo after 4 days is unprecedented. Clearly flair was wrong for not paying the bill, but action that fast is weird.

More bad news today🤷‍♂️ https://weeklyvoice.com/flair-airlines-planes-seized-over-unpaid-fees-owed-to-nav-canada/ Not sure this support thread is the place for sharing news of more repos. Also not sure why a South Asian news site would be the one breaking the news, or how the planes could have been...

This is either gonna go one of two ways. Either flair weather's the storm, I'm sure with a big cash influx from their investors, and carries on, regardless of what somebody maybe heard a fueller in Ottawa say. Or things break down very quickly and we'll know in a week or two. Who knows, everything s...

I'd love some details on where this rumour about FLKJ's lease came from? Why that aircraft specifically?

How low is who willing to go? The westjet management group? Because this is all on them.

Flair pilots lost jumpseat privileges with westjet late last year. A lot of Flair pilots, myself included, think wr should keep allowing westjet pilots to jumpseat. But unfortunately it's not our call to make.
