Cathay Pilot pleads guilty to defrauding Air Canada
Seems fortunate he got off with a conditional discharge, restitution, and probation.
according to the Vancouver Sun:
Pilot ordered to pay Air Canada after scamming $36K in free flights | Vancouver Sun
A Cathay Pacific pilot who pleaded guilty to scamming Air Canada for free flights has been given a conditional discharge and ordered to pay the airline thousands of dollars as restitution.
In a B.C. provincial court decision issued last month, Marc Anthony Tacchi was ordered to abide by a number of conditions for six months, perform 20 hours of community work, and pay back Air Canada $36,551.27.
According to court documents, Tacchi is a 42-year-old Canadian citizen and permanent resident of Hong Kong who works as a pilot for Cathay Dragon, under the Cathay Pacific brand.
