Which further solidifies my point on the glacial negotiations, nothing has changed since then!

It's an interesting point to raise regarding YVR being the DBX of W. Canada. There are of course a huge number of OD passengers from Asia ending up in YVR, but the funny thing is there is also a large amount of flow traffic ending up in YYC to connect onto other domestic markets (YYC has superior connectivity, given Westjet's hub presence).

So really, YYC should be capturing a lot of the (direct) Asian traffic that YVR currently gets, instead of the passengers connecting through YVR to YYC.

What I'm also implying is that there is definitely demand for direct service from plenty of Asian locations to YYC.
