Shows us how badly we're being ripped off by Air Canada.

No defender of Air Canada (fucking hate their corporate culture) but... $99 one-way airfare shows nothing except a headline grabbing loss-leader for a startup route by a no-frill carrier.

Like Free McDonalds coffee when they came out with a new blend in an effort to get people to try theirs and hope to grab some of the Timmie's Zombies. Does that show Tim Hortons is ripping us off?

(see my sig line)

It will be interesting to see what they do. Will AC match it with Rouge (which is a rip off now).

The $99 price is rock bottom intro prices, at high season it is +150%. They also charge for luggage transport. Everything is extra cost. At the end you are paying as much as other airlines charge. AC will squash them like a bug.

If you think ac and other airlines are a rip off start your own airline and sell cheaper flights

The SkyGreece jet was parked south of Derry ... I wonder if it has been painted ....
It's been moved to an area of the airport where it is out of everyone's way.

Really? Squash them like a bug? Ahhhh, like they squashed WestJet, or Porter?

Besides, are you are so stupid to think AC gives a shit about fares to Iceland? (Pssssst.... AC doesn't fly to Iceland)

You are the inspiration for my sig line!
