Forget about American and United with their fancy, shmansy first class travel awards. Here's a program with some real bite to it!

The 'bite must be FROST BITE? BRRRR!

All the other US states have little sayings that represent them. Hawaii is the Aloha State, california is the Sunshine State. What is Alasaka's? The it's so cold I can't feel my feet State? Or Eye losht havle of ma tonge wehen eye lickad ah meatal phole State.

Those could work...

Alaska's motto is "The Last Frontier". However, this little Inuit carrier is in the northern reaches of Canada (with flights down to Montreal), not Alaska.

And when did they start spelling Alasaka with only 2 A's? I like the old way of spelling it better. I'm sticking with it...

(mental note, buy a dictionary... Come to think of it, why is the word dictionary in the dictionary?)

Shouldn't this be posted in the Air Inuit Forum? http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

My thoughts exactly.

Village Idiot:
I am from the "Alasaka." Just to let you know, we really do live in Igloos! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif

Actually, you *need* 8,260 points for that particular reward... and the ratio at which you earn points is a bit steep if you ask me... you can win a hat for 375 points, which according to the chart needs you to purchase $350 worth of tickets. That would mean that for a mere $16,520 worth of other travel you get that free trip--and that's still expensive even if it is CAN $ and not US $.

:-)

Talk about a captive audience, that might have something to do with the steep reward structure. Now, I wonder if we can get a nice philisophical discussion going on their cutting back on linens, chocolates and hot towels?

Actually, Florida is the sunshine state.

...and California is the Golden State. Or the "We can't keep our lights on" State.

So is Inuit Air subject to Quebec's draconian French laws? ("Merci avoir choisi Inuit Air vol 245, Kuujjuaraapik-Kangiksualujjuag"). Looks like they operate out of the Inuit towns in Quebec around Hudson Bay and the Labrador Sea. <brrrrrr....>
