“This honour extends to all of our employees, whose commitment, quality service and hard work ensure our passengers a pleasant, memorable experience, so their vacation truly begins the moment they set foot on board.

  1. It’s wonderful to have such pleasant and caring Flight Attendants and pilots. I fly with you whenever we can. Thank you for your safe flying and care of passengers. I wish more flights left Vancouver,BC. Perhaps that will be in the future. Thank you
