While I understand BOI - YYC traffic may not be huge on its own, I believe WestJet could take advantage of connecting traffic to Europe, and 1 stop traffic to other cities in Canada as well to make these routes more viable. Air Canada seems to have been successful flying to smaller markets in the Ea...
Jump to postWhy have we not seen WestJet attempt any markets from YYC such as Billings, Boise, Fargo, etc? These markets currently have no direct service to Canada and could be served a few times per week with a Q400. In the case of Fargo there may also be an O&G connection as well.

Jump to postIs WestJet Cargo now flying México - USA routes? I see WS9151 scheduled from GDL - LAX the last few days. Would this be a charter for DHL?
I haven’t seen anything in their press releases regarding this route launch.
Well they have some high schoolers writing for them. The articles aren't edited by an editor. Check out today's disaster https://simpleflying.com/first-class-comparison-alaska-airlines-delta-air-lines-embraer-e-175/ what a mess, no legitimate site would published this.

Jump to postIt looks to me like JetBlue is getting cold feet regarding this deal with the direction the economy is going and is trying to sabotage it to get a way out. It is hard to believe JetBlue lawyers would accidentally leave such a statement un-redacted given the scrutiny this merger is facing.
Jump to postSmoking onboard just seems a recipie for disaster. Who are they really trying to appeal to nowadays with such positioning?
Jump to postI believe the big problem YVR has is a lack of corporations operating out of Vancouver. Those are typically the big spenders buying last minute first class tickets and subsidizing the flight. With all the big corporations based out of SEA it makes sense why that route can hold on much better. Given ...
Jump to postAny idea on new destinations we can expect out of YYC with the fleet being moved back there? Could we expect to see MEX return or some additional US cities?
Jump to postIt is gross how much American profited off of increasing fairs so much while taking tax payer money and providing such a poor product. It is no surprise they are profitable when they face less competition because of mergers and tax payer subsidies they got during COVID. AA’s product is awful compar...

Jump to postDL is shaking their head watching the mess at Westjet continue...

Jump to postFedex has seriously gone downhill in the past few years. Customer service is non existent now, and on-time reliability even when you pay for the fastest possible option is outrageous.

Jump to postIs WS seeing a massive spike in demand between Canada and Mexico?
It looks like there are days in the coming weeks fully sold out already, and all of April has extremely high fares at levels I have never seen before.
The president of Mexico spoke to the Delta CEO and convinced him to fly to the new airport. I am sure it was a deal involving the Delta stake in Bankrupt AM. Delta helps the Mexican president save face by endorsing the new airport and the Mexican gov’t in return gives Delta good treatment in the Ban...

Any chance WestJet sells the 787 fleet and returns to focusing on North America only?

Jump to postGlobal Times is one of the worst Chinese media outlets, full of blatant racism, lies, and extreme nationalism. I would take anything they say with a grain of salt.
