The perception of private aviation as all champagne and caviar is wrong. Many of aircraft have such small cabins you can’t stand up in them, but they do connect city pairs which scheduled airlines do not. Around 10% of business jets flying are air ambulances. Business aviation connects 3,150 city pairs in the United Kingdom; 120 metro areas and 124 airports; versus 506 connections; 30 metro areas and 30 airports served by the top 16 airline (A4E and Wizz) holdings in Europe, according to latest data analysis by WINGX.

“This week marks more than 240 days since our stale and outdated contract expired,” said F/O Charlene Hudy, [Air Canada Pilots] Air Canada ALPA Master Executive Council (MEC) chair, during the event. “Air Canada has the opportunity to recognize our value by making important improvements to our contract, which must include closing the significant wage gap between the United States and Canada. If they fail to do so, we all will lose, and Air Canada will no longer attract and retain the pilots they require.” In January, ALPA and Air Canada entered into a mediation protocol agreement with a professional mediator to facilitate negotiations. This is the final week of negotiations scheduled under the protocol agreement. Since entering the mediation protocol agreement, the two parties have been successful in reaching some agreements, however, numerous items remain outstanding. With only days left in mediation, Air Canada pilots are sending a unified message to management that it’s time to deliver a world-class contract they have earned. “We’ve heard Air Canada’s ambitious growth plans during their recent quarterly financial updates. Ambitious airline growth plans require a strong and engaged pilot group, because without pilots who are valued, there is no growth plan,” said Hudy. https://lnkd.in/gkG4QXYa #worldclasscontract #aircanadapilots #canada #aviation ALPA Canada
