C3 buys Canjet

[alapt]

Heard today that Canada 3000 has bought Canjet! Air Canada might be in a bit of trouble soon.

[Squawk 8888]

Not a problem for AC- they'll still be seven times as big as C3 and go after a different market. Air Transat is in serious trouble, though- they used to be the biggest of the cheapies but years of crappy service have taken their toll. If the stars are right we'll se Transat go belly-up and C3 go head-to-head with Westjet.
