That's it I've had it - My Western travel is now gone to Westjet which has no surcharges for fuel and I haven't heard of a NAV Can increase. On a $200 ticket to Vancouver AC has effectively raised its fares by over 15% which is quite significant. Our firm no longer uses AC for western shorthauls and I suspect this announcement will move many more clients over to Westjet which now flies more pax YEG-YYC than does AC and is neck and neck with AC on YEG-YVR.
