Win for AirCan
we are never going to have affordable flights in Canada. it's such a joke, we pay more than any other country for domestic flights.
yep, no long range planning BEFORE starting up and the blaming everyone else but themselves when they fail.
It’s suck that I’m one of those have bookings for March
Can't say I blame them it's hard just making a living because of how expensive everything is ..
Lefties whining that inflation is sad. Ironic.
