Buddy I don't know what you're doing but keep doing it...

I got the same price for air canada but the best price for united was over 2G...

You obviously have a better way of finding cheap flights and when I go somewhere, I'm calling you...

Got this in my e-mail today:

On My Way™

The new name for peace of mind.

Dear LAURA,

As a valued Air Canada customer, you travel often. And chances are you’ve occasionally had flights delayed or cancelled because of bad weather or air traffic problems. In situations like that, we do what any responsible airline would do for their customers: we work hard to rebook you on our first available flight out so you can get to your destination as quickly as possible.

But we want to offer you protection that goes beyond what airlines normally do when the unforeseen occurs.

Introducing On My Way™, an innovative new travel assistance service for flights within North America. For the price of a cab ride to the airport, you can benefit from:

Access to specialized agents who are available around the clock to address your needs

Priority rebooking on the first flight out (with Air Canada or another airline)

The option of a complimentary rental car, train ticket or bus ticket
Food vouchers and a hotel room if needed

What this means for you: a faster response time, fewer line-ups and more options. So you can feel in control even when events occur that are beyond your control.

I encourage you to find out more about this unique new service so your future travels with us will be all the more pleasant and stress-free.

When you book your next flight on aircanada.com, choose On My Way.


Kind regards,



Sue Welscheid
Vice President, Customer Service

fuking greedy bastards

i've flown with air canada and their service was absolute shit!! very rude. plus no movies were shown on the flight. and a big thing, we had to wait some 2 hours extra in the plane before taking off cuz of some bullshit "problem" they had, i forget cuz it was a while ago.

KLM is still my fav but i havent flown with them in ages.
CSA czech airlines are GREAT! they give you a nice classy looking menu, and the stewardesses are so damn fine! long beautiful legs and slim. truely slavic

That's because Canada enforces women's rights. In other parts of the world, only young, good looking women are picked. At some airlines you cannot be a flight attendant if you have any scars on your hands.
