I like Flair. No fucking around and a well maintained fleet. West Jet went to shit.
The Tarriff Hype.
- Thread starter petros
- Start date
Seems like. We had to fly Flair to Kitamat when we were building the new smelter. Didn't think much of them. Pussy pilots. Wouldn't land in Nanaimo because the gliders fly that day. Dropped us in Pr. Rupert once because of fog at Terrace, although every other plane managed to land in Terrace that day. After that Coast mountain got a Dash 7 for the island. That worked much better.
Flair has a ton of petty charges. Even water costs money on the plane. Had to be at YVR 3 hrs before flight time. So I was, but there was no staff at their counter.

Governments sell bonds - essentially an IOU - to raise money for public spending and in return they pay interest. Recently, in an extremely rare move the rate the US government had to pay on its bonds rose sharply, while the price of bonds themselves fell.
