A.2. ALDERMANIC INQUIRIES
A.2.(a) Alderman Chichak re: Announcement of Cutback on Air Canada
Flights Through Edmonton
Alderman Chichak requested that the Edmonton Air Services Authority report back on Air Canada's decision to cut back on flights through Edmonton. Is
the Air Services Authority in a position to examine the impact of the
decision to cut back on scheduled flights? Can the Authority carry out an assessment of the following issues?
November 21, 1990 1050
1. (a) The number of Edmonton passengers travelling east and west taking the Air Bus to Calgary for the connector flights to Toronto or Vancouver, ultimately making Calgary appear to be the hub of all the passenger flights.
(b) Does this create a false statistic with regard to the number of passengers travelling through Edmonton?
2. Whether part of the problem of taking connector flights into Calgary is due to the fact that the Air Canada or other Airline flights are not scheduled to meet the time requirements of the business community or other travellers into the destination locations. (The
connector flights have to be taken to meet timelines,
thus giving a false statistic of the public travelling
from Edmonton).
