Air Canada Embarq
 

Just came across Air Canada Embarq from a thread on reddit. Looks really weird to me. When did AC get into the Kickstarter/GoFundMe business? :confused:

So, random strangers can chip in to this one man motorcycle gang. Or, a girls grad trip?

Anyone can beg for anything on the internet.

This specifically is pretty off-putting.

Notice how must are not funded tho ;)

I saw an ad for this at McGill in YUL (but not Western at YXU)...

I'm going to put u a full fare J trip for 4 to SYD. Who wants to join?

I'll go.

We could try to break the internet by finding the dumbest trip request on the site and completely funding it in a day. Who wants to chip in a fiver?

Maybe put one up for YYZYHM and say you're afraid of cars and trains.

Wow, I can dishonor my heritage, discard my own values and any self respect by selflessly begging others to fund my own personal orgies of travel!

Man you got to love the internet :D

Good one. What about a post that begs for a YYZ-YVR trip, claiming that you're just 4k AQMs short of SE status and need a mileage run. Please help!

Donate to "Fear and Loathing in PVG" Campaign please
Because you have money and I don't. /S

It would appear that AC actually funded some one's 2100 ticket to AUS in its entirety lmao.
Who comes up with these marketing stuff.

Dear internet,

I can afford to travel on my own dime but thanks to the world of points, I've become accustomed to flying a minimum of business class. Unfortunately for my next trip, due to budgetary reasons, I'm only flying in premium economy (aka just above cattle class). Please fund me so I can buy up to a higher class of travel. End this premium economy madness!

Here ya go.

Brilliant.

not tacky at all. ;)

I saw an ad for this in the washroom at UofT.

I'll make one anyways; don't expect anything but who knows :P

This comes to about $4660 but requires an overnight in YUL....
