Air Canada: “abuse” in regional fares, says François Legault

The tariffs proposed by Air Canada for its regional customers fall under the “abuse”, declared François Legault, passing in Abitibi-Témiscamingue, Thursday.

“We remember, in the past, Air Transat charged $ 500 for the round trip to Paris, worse than the others (Air Canada) charged $ 1000 for the round trip in a region, that’s clear. that there is abuse on that side, ”said the Prime Minister and co-founder of Air Transat.

Asked about the end of air service to Val-d’Or by Air Canada, François Legault reiterated his intention to financially support an air carrier to provide regional connections.

“What we are in the process of offering to various carriers, including Air Creebec, but also including other carriers, is to ask them for a minimum frequency and maximum guaranteed rates, region by region, airport by airport. “, He explained.

“I consider it an essential service, so it is normal for the Quebec government to pay compensation to these companies,” he added.
