    Until last year I’d never even heard of Air Canada, and now every time anybody mentions them all I hear is how terrible they are.

      As a Canadian, I’d just like to say Air Canada makes BA look like a luxury airline.

        I remember when British Airways used to actually be posh. If you were flying with BA you’d made it.

          Well despite how far it’s fallen, it’s still up on Air Canada. Their business model is running flights as a cover for taking as much government funding as they can get.

          When I was still living in Canada and my now wife was here in the UK, we discovered that booking with Air Canada was $100-$300 cheaper in the UK than in Canada.
