Porter signs removed from check in counters

Post by DCL415 »

I was at the airport and all the signs and logos has been removed from their check in counters.

Is this happening in all airports?

That's not a good sign.

The Q400's to be repainted in Cameron Air livery, next?

I guess suing the terminal owner might motivate them to remove your signs.

There are still a whole bunch of Porter signs at YTZ check-in, I just looked. And the building still has a big illuminated Porter sign on it. Your correspondent at the scene here will report if that changes.

Do you have a source for that or is it water cooler talk? It would be a real shame - one of the main attractions of Porter is that they operate out of the island. You can land and be in your car in 20 minutes.

But however - I can confirm. No signs have been removed from YTZ, and there's still a large illuminated sign on the terminal. But I gotta say, YTZ is quite the ghost town right now.

probably vaguenesses would have made more sense. But that's a bit awkward, as a word.

I’d agree. Definitely a word that’s better spoken then written.
