Air Canada Really Behind the Times...

Hello all,
Just today, I happened to use the booking engine on the AC website for the first time. When I had put together my itinerary, it notified me that I had to create a profile so I did this. However, when I went to select my country under the "Mailing Address" section, one option was Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. To say the least, I had a good laugh, though I'm now pondering what this says about AC.


Cheers.

eek, I always knew AC was a leftist-sympathizing operation!

The Quebec school system is not very good. The only geography that they teach about outside PQ is "where is Paris and where is Fort Lauderdale".

You could show that mistake to 100 people in AC HQ and only 10 would find it.

Rather redneck I would say!

P.S. I would also check out the St. Pete's beaches on the Gulf Coast.

Just goes to show, you should never let a code-monkey take care of content. They just keep recycling old stuff...
