Don't be surprised if the current culture of WestJet disappears along with the name creating an opening for a new low cost airline between major points. Just because you own an airline doesn't mean you can run it...as proven many times before.

canuck44 I am going to borrow a great phrase for ONEX. JUST BECAUSE YOU OWN AN AIRLINE FINALLY DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN RUN IT. THIS IS GOING TO BE A MESS. GREAT LINE DOCTOR!

Sure hope it doesn't affect service and cost. I prefer Westjet over Air Canada but if the cost to travel goes up, there goes my loyalty!!

As long as they don't start adding Airbus's to Westjet's fleet I don't mind. Those things are worse than the MAX.

ONEX will look at the Canadian Airbus if any of them especially if they can get YTZ opened up for jet traffic.
