WestJet to Integrate Flair soon?

[PittBoss]

Heard from Flair employees that Onyx planning to buy Flair and Integrate Flair like Sunwing.

Heard there's a particular username that literally only exists to start random posts like this for a year or two now.

It is funny to see the results though, between some guys that get all wound up, and opinions from others who couldn't even run a lemonade stand.

What possible benefit would WJ have by buying Flair?

Seriously, Flair would only add debt to WJ without any tangible benefit.

no doubt, 100s of millions of debt and a bunch of expensive leases, sounds like a sound business strategy to me!

Honestly, now that you've put it that way, it does sound like something Onex would do. If they implemented Flair service, it would be an improvement from the current WJ service.

The seniority list integration will be interesting. How many 15-20 year Flair pilots are there that will get to bid the B787 left seat ?

NONE! Because it won't happen.

If this happens, Flair pilots will have the privilege of flying modern 737's like the old 200's. Don't forget to say thank you, Flair pilots. Climb Thrust Level Change!

And/or the privilege of flying with former SWG pilots setting some arbitrary N1 settings for go arounds (with no corresponding climb performance numbers).

I heard EIC was looking at adding Flair to their portfolio. Give them better southern canada coverage.

Oh - give it a rest you two. Nobodies perfect.

I can come up with all kinds of stupid shit both Westjet and Sunwing crews have done. Just give it a rest.

Flair SOPs are very similar to SWG SOPs.

I didn't mention anything about Westjet crews, who by the way have been fantastic to work with. But it would be nice if the company didn't pay to get rid of GPWS callouts for example

It's not a payment. It's a simple settings change done by maintenance...

PittBoss exists because you lot always take the bait and feed the troll. At this point I don't blame him!

None that are under 65.
