It has been a disastrous year for WestJet Boeing Delta flying airplanes and this only compounds the issues they have had.

Travel seems to be sketch right now.
Fixed that for you

lol tbf I have only had experience with Westjet so far. I have personally not travelled for this reason, but know of a lot of bad experiences so far.

One time coming back from a funeral from Vancouver the Westjet attendant told us our flight was going to be delayed for while since Calgary had a big storm. A bit confusing as it said it was 23 and sunny. Anyways we went to get hammered and a little while in over the intercom they paged me and my uncles for last call to board.

So we run to the gate and they are like what are you talking about no delay, and the weather in Calgary is perfect.

If you don't mind me asking, what Westjet number are you calling? The main line was just saying there's no agents and hanging up after repeating the message that they have no agents available in a few languages.

The Ukraine's fighter jets are utilizing the B gates. The alleged water damage is just a ruse.

Somehow this is all Bill Gates' fault. I dont know how, but it just is. Him and the Lizard-Men.

Perhaps they bought a siding manufacturing corporation?

At least October before Concourse B is back online at YYC after the hail damage. Could be a bit sooner but they want to do a bit of preventative work, it sounds like.

WestJet is an absolute mess right now though. Went out to Vancouver for my wife's uncle's funeral and the flight out on Friday was fine. Got notification on Saturday that our Monday flight was cancelled and we were rebooked for Tuesday morning at 6 am. According to the passenger rights rules, they should have booked us on another airline to get us back on the same day (their replacement flight was more than 9 hours later and other Monday options were available from Flair). No way to contact WestJet via phone, chat, anything. Their customer service was totally overloaded.

We ended up booking with Flair on our own to come back on Monday as we had no childcare after Monday. Now I have to complete a compliant to try and get our money back for the extra cost of Flair when WestJet should have done it themselves.

For fun, I checked our "replacement" flight that was supposed to leave at 6am this morning and it was cancelled too... if we had stuck with them we'd still be in Vancouver right now.

George Soros' fingerprints are all over this. Don't get me started on the WEF's involvement.

By the looks of the radar it might totally miss the NE, what'er the odds?
