Yukon charter operator

Post by palebird »

So who was the charter operator who flew these two fools from Whitehorse to Beaver Creek and back for vaccinations. Was that not a little bit suspect?

Seriously folks, nobody goes to Beaver Creek. A couple of privileged Vancouverites making a quick trip to Beaver Creek. Give me a break. I suspect somebody does not want to be exposed for being money hungry damn the consequences.

Are taxi drivers liable for driving drug dealers around? HAs AirWestTransSunporter ever flown criminals around while they were going to, or coming from a crime scene?
Like any small company, they saw a revenue trip in these straightened times, and jumped on to it..

I was surprised to read there was an actual community in Beaver Creek. Used to be this tiny little one way strip on the top of a mountain. Was huge fun going there!

Wowsers. Looks like there are a bunch of people on here with nothing else to do but jump on posters. Valid question and no answer. Like I said who is going to Beaver Creek, especially in January, straight off a flight from YVR and then turns right around and heads right back?? Lots of people with their heads in the sand. First nations in Beaver Creek are understandably very upset. Just another case of people with lots of money walking all over them and doing as they like. That includes the operator who flew them around.

I would suggest that any decent charter company does not go around identifying their customers, without their consent. Nor should employees of such companies publicize this information. When I was in the business, every off the street customer chartered the aircraft under a “confidential contract”, which I recall was also to satisfy a CTA requirement with respect to tariffs, although I can’t remember the exact reasoning. Nonetheless, all of the details were considered “confidential”, and customer permission was required when listing them as references on a bid for a new contract (as is a good practice any time one list references!)

I'd say half the charters I've done to reserves were people going there for who knows what for a couple of hours or a day. The other half were construction guys who stayed a couple of weeks. Doesn't sound like a weird request to me.

Rich coming from someone with nothing better to do than try and publicly shame a company for keeping their lights on.

Your "question" was more of an insinuation; that has led others to an opinion, that you now seem to be a little bit uncomfortable with. :roll:

Valid question and no answer
Invalid question (none of anyone's business), and yes there'll be an answer, but similarly not anyone's business. What the two people did was wrong. Who provided transportation is outside that scope.

I can just imagine, someone here being quizzed by a charter operator as to the purpose of the requested flight, and being asked to authorize that their travel later be made public, people here would be up in arms at the invasion of their privacy. So why are a few people trying to invade their privacy.

Now I entirely support the vaccine provider (seeing as it's a publicly funded effort) confirming that a person requesting the vaccine is in a group for whom it is intended, and refusing to vaccinate if not in the group, and I also support a government agency laying a charge for failing to self isolate upon entry to an area.

Selfish people like those two make the rest of our lives more difficult, our fellow aviation industry people are not a part of it....

Quite the story. He is apparently quite wealthy. Casino owner. Has Russian wife who is 25 years younger. Charters plane to fly to remote location. They then pretend to be hotel workers to jump the vaccine que. :lol:

The charter company shouldn’t have any blame in this. These 2 were being deceitful, so I don’t think they would have told them their true plan. Just take their money and fly from A-B.

By the way, do you think they will be eligible for the second dose now? :lol:

Prison Inmates have the priority to receive the vaccine sooner than most other law abiding citizen groups. So if they end up going to prison, then they will get their second dose... sadly.
