      I think you do a great job and I thoroughly enjoy your informative work. I believe less frequent videos, but with a weekly summary of the most important news would be a nice touch to your programming. Maybe you could even snag an occasional interview with airline related personnel and experts.

    How is the acquisition of AirTransat positive?
    One of the biggest problems with Canadian aviation industry is lack of competition.
    Now again Air Canada will be the sole Canadian airline to fly long haul international. That means fewer options for Canadians and naturally higher fares. Not to mention lack of pressure for improved service.
    Does not seem pretty to me

    The amount and/or types of complaints in DJ’s recent videos is ridiculous. If it’s not about the clips used, it’s video being “too short” and now “too long”. If not that, it’s the tittle of the video or something else entirely. People will find something to complain about even though there really shouldn’t be a reason. This guy goes out of his way to make videos with up to date accurate information, from credited resources and God knows how much work this all takes.

    For a young bloke you know more about the aviation world than me, I like to fly every 2 - 3 months but nowadays that is not possible.
    Keep up you good work as i read every one of your posts

    So why don't Emirates use the A350-1000 in place of the orders of the 777x like how they took off some of the order and replaced it with the 787 dreamliners

    • @nickolliver3021
      @nickolliver3021 3 роки тому +1

      Emirates cancelled their a350-1000 order and went for the smaller a350-900. They could go back to the -1000 if they are desperate.
      Considering this they had 787-10 and now are going for more 787-9.
      I mean it would be nice of them changing or ordering the 1000 on top of the 900 but heh it's crazy and a mess with new Emirates orders.

    1) Air Canada Attendants used our hand-luggage compartments, suggesting for my wife and 3 of my kids to keep our luggage under our feet. 2) They do not speak English in Montreal. 3) They lost our stroller. (no sorry or compensation) 4) They asked me to shut my child when she was crying.

    Not working in the Aircraft building....So find your Channel fun......Could or would Boeing and Airbus....not merge.....But work as a team of extremely ingenious people to build planes together. Like take the 321 and 737 max 787.....combine each good points of each Aircraft and build a Super plane to Control the China Aircraft industry 😳 👏 👍 🙄

    DJ You speak of the positive nature of the AirTransat buy up by AC. But most Canadians have relied on AT to provide cost effective routes to the EU and Southern destinations that we ALL UNDERSTAND WELL Air Montreal will NOT OFFER once this is done. All the nonsense of jobs protected in Quebec is "lip service" and in the end Canadians will end up paying MORE to fly anywhere without AT's aggressive charter fare style pricing in play. So really at a price per seat , you don't really understand the dynamic of the Canadian market. And if you don't believe that the Ottawa Liberal Government and Air Canada aren't in bed to crush real competition, spend some time doing your home work on Porter Airlines. See their role in the ultimate loss of the C Series to AirBus ...for $1 all thanks to the Trudeau Government and Marc Garneau killing the YTZ runway expansion that blocked Porter from buying BBD's first meaningful C Series order. days after the runway expansion was denied and Porter was forced to cxl their order....magically AC buys C Series planes.... go figure! Porter has been killing AC on all business class for less commuter routes Toronto Ottawa Montreal NYC and Boston. Not allowing them to fly C Series out of the Toronto Island airport , their main hub, effectively capped their growth . Then AC comes and buys the planes Porter now can't fly. Wake up!
    It's great to make these posts, but you don't really get our market and what's going on . Air Canada has consistently been allowed to swallow of defeat with Ottawa's backing, every major competitor that it's faced for decades. Westjet isn't an exception, it's just next on the list to fall. Start with CP-Air which ended up under PWA and eventually Canadian Airlines International, if you want an education in how Ottawa protects and advantages its little airline darling. And if you can find 1 Canadian who thinks selling off 100's of millions of our tax payers investment in the C Series, for a buck, to Airbus was good for Canada and our aviation sector, I'll show you and idiot.

    Unfortunately for the aviation industry they have peaked in market penetration in the West. There are several reasons for this but most importantly today is what this means to the value of government subsidies. Fuel costs in the next few years is going to make air travel much more expensive than it is today meaning the number of flights will shrink, so there is really no need to prop the industry up past what it will need to be in size after recovery. The size of aircraft will need to be reduced if a wide and frequent network is going to operate and employment will need to be reduced to fit the new requirements. What will be exciting is the new energy efficient airplanes both battery electric and fuel cell electric that will enter the market in the next 1-2 decades.

    Air Canada fares, compared to American counterpatts are very high, so no surprise that they've been very profitable until this year. Government bailout is not the answer. AC has operated in a near-monopolistic environment and now needs to learn how to live in a world that has changed for everyone. They're not so special that we need to provide billions so that they can keep operating as if nothing has changed.

  • @thegan9143

    Air Canada would be better to struggle without govt money and not be forced into keeping non-viable routes open. I say this being some one effected by the cancellation of some of AC's routes.

    Personally I hope TS takes over for the Rouge product. It would help AC in terms of the public’s view of the carrier (IMHO Rouge hurt the mainline product). Then let TS transform Rouge to the premium product TS has offered over the many years. Hopefully drop Rouge completely! 🤞

    • @rusmonkey17
      @rusmonkey17 3 роки тому

      @@ysfsim yes the MAX looks like it's going to be their mainline narrowbody aircraft but the XLR would fit perfectly into their Rouge or even Air Transat fleet. Given Rouge retired their 767s and only operate A319/A321 it would be a perfect fit. As for Air Transat they already operate the A321LR it would be a no brainer.

    "Cargojet. The carrier did not specify whether it would acquire new-build 777Fs, used 777Fs or freighter-converted 777-300ERSFs. Based on the capital being raised, “it would likely be either used units coming off lease, or conversions,” said Frederic Horst, managing director of Cargo Facts Consulting."
