Searching on the AC site the last change was in 2004?

They are downgrading the fleet, so they need to downgrade the uniforms too?

Isn't that when the 737's are coming out? I remember seeing that and going...wait, I thought they were coming earlier :p :D But no, I recall 2017 as the date of the 737 launch. It was in a chart thingy that someone posted on FT

Weird announcing new uniforms without actually posting any pictures. Must be finalized by now.

About time!

Some crew/GA/ticketing staff looked like they were starting to wear some pretty worn out clothes!

His lines are gorgeous. Crisp, sleek, understated elegance.
Good Call AC! ^

Well, one thing is for sure, the older folk will not be fitting into SLIM FIT(tight fitting) Christopher Bates ensembles!

1) I posted the chart which was from the MD&A

2) It takes Boeing less time to build a 737 than it takes AC to acquire new uniforms :P
