Also @westjet waiting to offer food / drink vouchers until after everything is closed (when the delay was announced much earlier ) is just highlighting lack of respect for your customers

And now a 4 hr delay ….. really @AirCanada @AirCanadaRouge @WestJet any significant delays >1hr should come with mandated lounge access.

Maybe airlines would do a little better job of keeping to schedules and would become more accountable for any delays greater than 1hr / or reschedules would come with mandated access to their business class (etc) lounges … also makes the waits more bearable @WestJet @AirCanada

On this day in 1874, Harold Brunn was born. In 1918, he did the first modern, closed lobectomy, ligating the vessels and suturing the hilar stump of lung over the severed bronchus. #CTSurgery
