I can't figure out why posters on this web page think a 737NG from Alaska, BC, Washington and Southern California to Hawaii on Alaska, Westjet, Continental and others is awful when an Air Canada 319 from Newfoundland to London is great!
If you aren't in business class, I don't see any difference.
I don't see what is stopping Westjet from operating from Newfoundland to Stanstead, and giving people access to all those cheap Ryanair fares to the rest of Europe. That will keep people in Newfoundland happy!!
