Madeline Kotzer @taroncochrane Thanks for tuning in! If you wanna dive deeper into this incredible story -- here's a web article plus embedded radio interview between myself & Tory Gillis on Saskatchewan Weekend --- cbc.ca/1.6406954 ~ Taron.
Then Air Canada said the only flight home was one week later. Today. Today, #aircanada cancelled our last leg of the flight home. The options they proposed were waiting days more in #nce — missing more work/school — other packing up our child and two babies and waiting in Vienna
…or waiting days in Toronto, with no guarantee of any coverage for hotels, meals, basic necessities of life (I repeat, I am travelling with two infants). Anyone at Air Canada care? We chose the final option. We’re about to leave with no plan to get home. #aircanada #cdnpoli
To make matters worse Air France customer service was truly dégoûtant — I experienced three employees, all men, laughing at me when I pleaded to be allowed to bring my double stroller with me… a practice literally every other airline I have flown with ever has allowed #airtravel
Then Air France employee “helping” us became abrasive/confused/unsure of policies & sent all our bags to Paris where we have to get bags, go through security, recheck bags Oh, and we paid 85€ per bag… & we might have to pay Air Canada AGAIN in Paris All because of #aircanada
I repeat, I am delayed by Air Canada for more than a week in France. No plan to get home. Terrible treatment by Air France — travelling with two babies, one child. What a terrible time to fly. #airtravel #cdnpoli #airfrance #aircanada
Well, after countless exchanges with Air Canada the airline’s solution was to hang up on me. I was calm and asked for a solution. So the #aircanada “plan” is to send us to Toronto with a connecting flight home 3 days away (Tues) & no compensation. Just appalling and terrible.
Hello Royal Ontario Museum — here’s my 11-year-old son, Bruce’s, #romwypjr submission. A photo of a fish fossil. It filled him with wonder “how is that possible?!” and when I asked why he liked it: “it’s more a feeling than the science.” #wonder #to
Hi again Royal Ontario Museum — here’s my #romwpyON submission. A portrait I took a few weeks ago during a family holiday in North Africa. This woman was selling lemons at the grand market in Sousse, Tunisia. I asked to take her photo and she beamed. The lemons were sweet and tart. 1/2
Part of a photography exercise with my son; the art of interacting with your subjects. My trick, get close and never use zoom unless there’s a risk of being eaten/destroyed. Thanks for the idea to submit, hope we’re not too late. 2/2 Royal Ontario Museum #romwpyon #to #fingerscrossed
