How nice of this #WestJet #737 to dump its fuel at low altitude over #WhatcomCounty instead of on the #BritishColumbia side of the border. https://whatcom-news.com/boeing-737-circling-over-whatcom-county-was-an-unusual-sight_214299/ #FlightAware #YVR #BellinghamWA #WhatcomNews #Canada #VancouverBC

Did you know that the rail network in Germany has an on time performance of over 90%? NINETY. In the UK, only 3% of trains were cancelled. (Source links for stats in next post)
Yet here we are, completely dependant on a long distance air travel system that pukes carbon and gives us all an ulcer.

333 followers · 1182 posts · Server thecanadian.socialI flew #Flair Air last night for the 1st time. Flight left a bit late but made up time so we arrived early. Baggage was out on carousel when I disembarked. Very speedy.
Front end issues:
Very long line just to get tag & check bag
No check-in machines nor self baggage drop
Gate was unknown at check in, was directed to correct terminal but no gate assigned <1 hour before departure
No pouch on seat back
No plugs at seats
Overall good. I would try again.

>The airline failed to scuttle the action in the B.C. courts, prompting it to argue that the Supreme Court could provide clarity on whether a court or the Canadian Human Rights Commission is the proper forum for systemic sexual harassment allegations.

E.g., are other people having the same issue, but not using #westjet

326 followers · 1108 posts · Server thecanadian.socialAs our family deals with yet another flight travel debacle (#Westjet strike) I must admit I’ve been checking #Twitter frequently for updates.
A) I’ve really lost faith in the air travel industry. The pandemic really has done them in. I never really feel like a flight is going to go until it’s in the air. (#Privileged I realize.)
B) #Mastodon needs a way to enter emergent corporate event and discourse in a significant way.

346 followers · 3943 posts · Server dice.campWestJet pilots declared an intention to strike tomorrow (and good for them) and when I called to cancel a ticket their phone system just straight-up told me they can't take my call right now and to please call back later.
So things aren't good over there right now.
Couldn't have happened to a shittier airline.
