.Robyn Urback Great opinion piece in the Globe and Mail. There is more to the story, though.

The key changes announced in 2023 are NOT in force.

The APPR, as of March 28, 2024, ***does not incorporate*** the 'exceptional circumstances' language at all.

This is a troubling example of a double standard: individual and unrepresented litigants being held to a different standards than corporate and represented ones.

“It is the airline’s responsibility to provide meals and accommodations, so they cannot expect passengers to wait … for hours without water, without food, for some kind of ground transportation, that’s not acceptable,” said Dr. Gabor Lukacs, APR's president.

Feds question Flair Airlines after Canadians stranded in Cancun for days

This past weekend, Flair left more than 100 Canadians stranded in Mexico. No food provided. No communication. No rebooking.

More Flair passengers stuck in Cancun 24 hours after scheduled flight
dailyhive.com/canada/flair-f…

In light of mounting reports of Flair Airlines (flair airlines) passengers being stranded abroad and receiving no communication nor rebooking on competitor airlines, contrary to the law, we seek clarification about:

1) Flair's finances;
2) the CTA (@CTA_gc) inaction.

Poorly written decision by the CRT, fails to engage in analysis of presence of evidence on 'safety reasons.'

Surely, more than the airline's say-so is required:
