I know there are some Air Canada watchers here, so I thought I'd ask. I took a friend and her daughter to SFO yesterday for an AC flight to Vancouver, but it was cancelled (and they didn't call her). The gate agent gave a flat "mechanical" as the reason, with the implication that he didn't believe it either. I looked at the board and 3 out of 8 arrivals/departures yesterday were cancelled. Hmmm. She was rebooked on an Alaska Air flight leaving an hour later, so no big problem, but some of the AC pax were speculating, wondering if it was (a) cancelled flights due to poor bookings, (b) something associated with the bankruptcy filing, or (c) a labour action having to do with (b), or with SARS. Anyone hear anything? -- Michael C. Berch mcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
