I’m still waiting for a reply about my lost luggage from Air Canada CEO Montie Brewer. He invites all valued customers to tell him what they really think.
Here’s another goofball Air Canada cost savings suggested in an hilarious post Dana forwarded to me penned by SCOTT FESCHUK in MacLeans magazine:
… The process is simple! Upon arriving at the airport, you go to one of those convenient electronic kiosks, stand in line behind someone who’s never used the kiosk before, sigh wearily as countless minutes of your mortal lifetime drain away, stab the clueless person ahead of you in the back with a pen, step over his bloody corpse, enter your booking reference number, watch the system crash, endure the system rebooting, stab yourself in the thigh with a pen and then print out your boarding pass and your baggage tags!
Then you just step back over the corpse (it’ll be there until Air Canada rolls out its new Self-Body-Bagging technology in the spring), attach the tags to your luggage, place the bags on a conveyor belt, fuel the jet, replace a gasket on its starboard engine, scrub the front and back lavatories — and you’re ready to sit back, relax and fly. …
If you hate airlines, read the entire article. It’s Hunter S Thompson funny / true.

I put Montie’s name in the title as he’s bound to have some lackey surveying the www to see what we happy customers are saying about him.
“Stand Down, Monty, Stand Down.”
