Ah, so typically Canadian to turn on a compatriot when they become a success. Who does she think she is...
From what I understand they are still running the ads overseas. However, they dropped them too quickly in Canada. (Except for that disastrous radio campaign a month or so ago when they tried to explain everything about AC fare structure in 60 seconds while CD emoted in the background). A couple months isn't long enough to establish a campaign in the consumers' mind. Perhaps AC felt that that 2 months was enough to give a new image to AC before they returned to the Wal-Mart approach. Price, price, price is common wisdom in the airline business these days but does any company become a breakout by merely following common wisdom?
Personally I think the comsumer still wants to feel good about flying, if it was all about price, wouldn't Jetsgo still be around?
