Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION

Well Done Air Canada!

This is not a phrase that you hear here very often, but this time out national flag carrier has listened to consumers, realised the difficulty that their pricing presentation has caused, and done something.In the future, their fuel surcharges will reclaim their proud and rightful place in the fare payable for passage; this should herald the end of the extraordinary distortions that have been the hallmark of airline pricing for all too long.There are, of course, many surcharges that are completely out of the airline's control, and these airport levies will still be an additional cost. The principle, however, of the cost of fuel being an integral part of the price of the seat is a good one, and they are to be applauded for taking the first step.Thank you Air Canada.
