Aha, Air Transat make reference to an accordian fleet which, what with MontrealGuy, suggests that it is a Canadian expression.
Also, on this side of the Atlantic, it's spelled accordion, with an "o".

Now that we settled what it all means, where the term might have originated and how it is properly spelled on either side of the Atlantic, how about some comments on the actual subject of the thread ?

Does any airline outside of Canada do this, or is this practice, like it's weird name and unique spelling, unique to Canada ?
