Aviation Memorabilia Newsletter

Since 1995

 

Industry Travel announces that, effective Oct 1/95, Revenue Canada will be implementing the Aviation Travel Tax upon the service charge for passes. Details on how this will be applied will be advised through Horizons. Airlines in Canada are vigorously opposing this tax.

Effective Oct 1/95, K.L.M. are no longer part of the MEDTA system, therefor ID50% and ID90% tickets will no longer be issued until a new agreement is negotiated. Tickets issued prior to Oct 1/95 will be honoured.

New Non-revenue dress code - effective Oct 1/95. Air Canada will adopt a more casual dress code for its non-revenue and reduced rate (ID) customers in order to have a better balance with the attire worn by many of the revenue customers. For travel in Executive class, men will no longer be required to wear either a jacket or tie, and women are no longer required to wear either stockings or hosiery. Attire in Executive Class should be in the mode of casual business. That means clean jeans can be worn in Hospitality, but don't expect to be upgraded! This now makes it extremely difficult to spot fellow 'cons' who may have a better priority that you!

The Travel Partner program consists of SPACE AVAILABLE, HOSPITALITY class tickets which can be used on any AIR CANADA routes ONLY. This excludes the use on either AC Connector, Continental or code-sharing partners.

A BBS operating in the YVR area called ACRA Airlines BBS can be contacted on 1-604-541-1878, this BBS is run by an Air Canada employee and has excellent information available including the latest Air Canada flight schedule which can be downloaded.
