So unless I'm headed to a large centre (in which case I take WestJet), then I end up on A/C once I'm out of the territory. Michael: Air North's service really is refreshing. Thanks for your comments.

It would take an awful lot to get me to pay to fly with Air Canada again, and even more to fly willingly. You can find my experience at the URL above. Air North has yet to let me down. I've always been super-impressed by their customer service because (as you so astutely noted) the employees use their common sense.

If we are heading east we book Air North to the provinces, spend a few days in Van, Edmonton or Calgary doing shopping then take WestJet or the like to our destination. I loath Air Canada. I picked up friends the other night who flew in on AC from Vancouver. AC had lost one piece of their luggage. How the hell do you lose luggage on a direct flight? Idiots.
