I've flown over twenty airlines, Air Canada is at the absolute bottom, below Beaman Bangledish and Indonesian Airlines.

They are... unorganized,rude,arrogant....

But they have nice planes and will get you safely to your destination so I'd say below average.

Default Cut them some slack

Quit whinning about Air Canada.

Canada is a big place and the population is small. So it is tough for an airline to operate in Canada.

An Airbus can not fly from Toronto to Yellowknife, so they require a 747 (need fuel). How many people do you think flys to Yellowknife on a given day? So they loose money on these flights. The fuel costs more than what they receive in ticket sales.

So I don't blame them for cutting costs.

It is not like the States, when people fly everywhere. With 300 Million people. It is easy to fill a plane and charge cheaper rates and offer more perks.

Would you rather Air Canada not exist? Who would fly to those remote destinations? Fed-Ex?

BTW. I do not work for Air Canada or affiliated with them in any way.

It's not that don't offer a great variety of flight options!
And yes I would hate to see them not exist!
I just wish they would get off there "high horse" and learn how to treat people with a bit of respect and class. That's what makes them a below Average Airline,and miles behind Westjet and Canjet in customer satisfaction.


Thier attitude just sucks period!!

I've been flying with AC for over 10 years, haven't had many problems except for some flights with late luggage (of which half of the incidents can be blamed on the new YYZ T1/GTAA). I still prefer them over Westjet.

I prefer Westjet. A younger, hipper flight crew and all around seem more in tune to the flying public.

I would rather see a 22 year old flight attendant than a 60 year old grannie with sagging boobs serving me tea.
