Plus if it’s 2 separate AOCs if one is pulled the other can keep operating if there’s a major accident or TC pulls it. I know a certain company that used to crash Caravans all the time did separate AOCs that so the passenger side could keep flying.

it BETTER be about the shareholders !
Call up all the management of the equities in your TFSA and RRSP and tell them you want less returns on your investments.
You're just a greedy 1%er.
Canada should have a flat income. Whatever your profession, all income should be the same.
Or at the least a guaranteed income of at least $80,000. You need that to live in TO.

How much Star Trek have you been watching? You’re telling me a ophthalmologist who specializes in corneal surgery should make the same as the person who sells you life insurance? Come on dude.

Nothing that has made it to the line. Likely see YOW and YUL before anything in the West. Right now most pairings will have some connection through YOW.

Let's just agree to call it organized chaos at it's finest, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

E2 is a nice machine to spend the day in.

Ottawa and Newark, Boston and T-Bay just announced. Q400 routes.

Lots of airlines pulling back. Porter keeps up with the expansion plans!

I understand your raw raw attitude as you seem to be a Porter pilot, however Flair continued their expansion despite not making enough money right up until they had leases repo’d. Now they are cautiously maintaining, hopefully not shrinking.
If the market is not there, expansion for the sake of expansion never works out, with the self fulfilling economic crisis looming, this could severely damage any expansion plans for any airline.
I’m at the point I would advise any pilot to grab a seat and hang on, if you have some tenure where you are and can live off of the wages, I would stay put!

I didn’t say EVERY airline pulling back. But many are, and that’s a fact. And yes, it’s exciting times at porter. I was simply using the appropriate thread to announce the new routes that porter is doing.

And I also would advise any pilot with some seniority to stand pat and wait it out.

But you didn’t “just” announce expansion plans, you literally highlighted that despite “lots of airlines pulling back. Porter keeps up with expansion plans!”
You were recruiting and you know it, good to know you’re not blind to what’s happening around us, I would not be surprised to see Porter delay some deliveries until summer starts to shape up.

Congratulations to all of you at Porter. It's nice to see further expansion and decent-paying jobs in the industry to give pilots more options.

Nope, I've got more than enough work in my current organization managing our growth, but instead of tearing down a guy happy his airline is doing well, I'm happy to congratulate them. Best of luck to you in your negotiations at Jazz in 2035.

A significant decision no doubt for WestJet. How will it be a different outcome for Porter?
