Well thats not exactly news anyway.....

What is stunning is how bold AC is on this. There was no word on this happening, it was just silently snuck in (99.9% of population wont notice), the claim is that fuel is included in domestic and transborder, so they are getting around it by lumping it together with NAVCAN + SURCHARGES.

Where is NAVCAN on all this??? It makes them look like thieves and makes it look like they are the ones charging the money, when in reality AC is pocketing all but $20 of it.

Putting in an undisclosed fee, lumping it in with NAVCAN so average joe doesnt see it is not only deceptive but its like AC is rubbing it in our faces that basically they have the free will to scam people as much as they want in Canada (which of course is not far from the truth with a powerful parliamentary lobby and operating in a oligopoly)
