Oh dear...and the press loves it all...plus GS putting downward pressure on TnC's if they order any "new" wide bodies to keep that oh so successful experiment going...some say that GS will be done in by the board by this fall...

AC's 787's still rolling in will make a big difference, as they give you checked baggage and a meal (and way more flights per day), then you got WOWair for those travelling light and Transat for your standard fare. Not understanding Westjet's ultimate vision?

For me that would be investing in new long range aircraft...Aside from AC/AT, half of the flights for WJ connect through eastern Canada then on to the EU. For those travelling via London, no one wants to make 2+ stops...(Same goes for WOWair via Reykjavik).

I think they made a little too much noise regarding thier 767 purchase lol...better have a plan B.

I'm sure some are saying that but, fall is here and so is GS. I think some are just wishfully thinking aloud.
