This morning bright and early in Comox. You know it’s going to be a good day when you’re honoured with the pride of our fleet #ct325

[Nathan Smith @airborneaussie]

Proud to operate the Queen of our fleet yesterday from beautiful Saint Lucia 🇱🇨 #CT325

Our highly skilled Aircraft Maintenance Engineers(AMEs) are currently negotiating for a fair industry standard contract. Today WestJet served our AMEs with a 72 hour lockout notice. We stand with our colleagues from AMFA and support their contract negotiation efforts.

We are often told that our culture is what sets us apart. So what is culture?

@WestJetALPA pilots stand in unity, sending a clear message to management that to make @WestJet competitive again, pilots must have an industry-standard contract.

@WestJetALPA pilots are holding an informational picket to demonstrate their increasing frustration with the company. We ask @WestJetALPA pilots to share these images in solidarity with their fellow pilots. Do not add extra comments.

A message from our MEC Chair, Captain Bernard Lewall regarding the recent major operational meltdowns experienced by #WestJet.

@MarisePayne hello Marise and thank you for the update on COVID travel restrictions. As an Australian in Canada who is eager to return home, I’ve seen no direction from the Australian Government regarding the recognition of mixed dose vaccinations (as are common here in Canada)

Kijiji is having issues since 6:16 PM EDT. https://t.co/6m2ME6ZYKY RT if it's down for you as well #Kijijidown

.@MarcGarneau Air crews are taking significant personal risks by continuing to report for duty. We need immediate action from the government so that air crew exposure to COVID-19 is minimized. @transport_gc @CanBorder @catsa_gc #WeAreALPA #COVID19

@Scotia_iTRADE , 50+ minutes on hold so far. What's going on?

[Nathan Smith @airborneaussie]

@FlightWnzl Right you are Nick!

[Nathan Smith @airborneaussie]

@FlightWnzl Hi Nick. Might want to amend your story on Air Canada’s first A220. AC are not the first North American operator of the type. Delta has that honour

[Nathan Smith @airborneaussie]

@Mirvish I just spent 20 minutes ‘attempting’ to purchase tickets via your website only to be told that I would have to get in line again after waiting 4 hours. Seriously?

[Nathan Smith @airborneaussie]

@BestBuyCanada Not cool Best Buy. Wanted to buy a Harmony home ultimate yesterday but alas, all sold out. Lo and behold, the next day (& $20 more expensive I might add) availability on line and in stores. A post Xmas miracle!

[Nathan Smith @airborneaussie]

@smartrulesapp hey what's the latest? Checking daily for this release!

[Nathan Smith @airborneaussie]

@marco_torretta Hi, love your Amount app. Any chance you could add fuel consumption data for conversion (eg miles per gallon, L/100km)?

[Nathan Smith @airborneaussie]

@airborneaussie @calgarytransit looks like it left early from the timing stop. Saw it at Rundle after being driven there by Mrs. Thanks

[Nathan Smith @airborneaussie]

@calgarytransit 48 didn't show up (again) at stop 6702. Can't depend on Calgary Transit to get to work. 16:56 bus
