We should boycott Air Canada..Yesterday I took my parents to the Intl Airport in Toronto an hour before the departure time and an Airline manager cancelled my parents ticket and his excuse was my parents should got there 2 hours in advance. We checked-in online and got the tickets printed off the internet and what we need were just drop the luggages. Today I called Airline Canada and asked them to help me to pick another date for my parents and they said the tickets already cancelled and they charged 25% on the total ticket that my parents originally purchased.

Boycott and boycott Air Canada…..

Here are several things you need to know about Jet Airways.

Jet Airways sucks, Jet Airways is a racist airline, Jet Airways is an airline Bigot!

Jet Airways is one of the racist airlines in the world.
I was delayed for 3 hours, even when I was early. And after the delay, guess what? They said that they needed to be furnished with supporting documents. Supporting documents that no other passengers have to provide, but myself. Then even when those so-called "supporting documents" are produced and showed to them, they refused to give me my boarding pass, based on the bag I was carrying (I was not using one of those "trolley bags" that people generally bring for holidays). Based on this they thought that I'm some kind of poor chap trying to stray off to another country. That was what they said. This is discrimination!

Furthermore, they even more vigorously denied me the boarding pass, only after I have confronted them with whether the fact that I have a beard, therefore a muslim, which affected their decision. This is again discrimination!
It's not that the proof was not there. It was there. I showed them. But they denied. I can only think that this is obviously a biased attitude, based on pure discrimination, not facts. They won't even accept tangible proof.

I as a muslim, am profoundly disgusted by these unfair treatment based on my religious belief.
Truly Jet Airways ought to be ashamed of their racism, and religious discrimination.

A few months ago, I booked a trip to Las Vegas with Air Canada and paid $314.32 on my credit card for a return flight. I cancelled a week later and was told they can't refund anything, but that amount will be a "credit". I call back a few days ago to book a 1 way ticket to Halifax. I'm told I will be charged $105 "change fees" for cancelling/re-booking my flight. I notice this is not deducted from the $314.32 I already paid, but charged on top of that, so I now have $419.32 on my credit card. The $105 is an obvious cash grab and a sort of penalty, so I put that aside. My issue is my flight to Halifax cost $202 including all taxes. So if you deduct $202 from the $314.32, that leaves $112.32 unaccounted for.

When I was on the phone with Air Canada asking them to confirm this, they couldn't. The agent just kept repeating that fares and taxes are different blah blah, but wouldn't tell me what, if anything I have left on my "credit".

He was completely rude and unhelpful and when I asked him to explain where the $112.32 went, he said he already did. He would constantly interrupt me and talk over me.

I am never dealing with AC again

There was Canadian Pacific and Air Canada, Pacific Western. Pacific Western purchased Canadian Pacific many years ago. I believe forming CPAir. CPAir purchased Wardair and a huge debt they never recovered. The so called merger Bewtween Air Canada & Canadian really wasn't a merger. Canadian being Alberta based everyone wanted to save Canadian. A long story though this should have never happend someone was responsible for Air Canada prior was doing okay no debt and rated at the top for safety and passenger service world wide. They purchased an enormus debt load from Canadain and never recovered. Many of the old A/C employees are gone. Just like back when Pacific Western purchased Canadian not to many years after very few PW employees left like as Wardair. Sometimes I wonder whp purchased who.

You are all wrong because Air Canada was just voted the "number 1 best" airline in ALL of north america. Yes, that means they beat, west jet, american airlines, north american airlines, united airlines, us airline, delta airlines, ALL of them. so all of you are completly wrong…also "hasband" wow thank God you were not the CEO because that song that celine dion did brought Air Canada out of bankruptcy… wow u must feel dumb. and Richard Murray the RJ's Crusing Alituded is 37, 000 feet and crusing speed is 857km so if it was leaking enough to let in water you wouldnt have had it to the ground, inless u were lucky even then the oxygen mask would have poped down and u would have only had 20 seconds before your passed out. AIRCANADA IS THE BEST!!!!!!

The attitudes of many Air Canada employees are just as bad when off-duty. I drove the employee (P11) shuttle buses at Dorval back in 07 and was disgusted by the arogant attitudes of most AC employees who'd complain a bus every 5 minutes wasn't fast enough to get from their car to the aiport.

It is not as bad as u guys are mentioning it. Because the first comments (of west jet emplyees are negative), your thoughts and memory of the trip with Air Canada are being influenced. I know we have some problems with management but we as employee, we always try our best. We don't kiss asses like westjet employees do but we do what we have to do.
