RE: Pic of the day… Canadian Gathering!
Air BC was part of the former Air Canada Connector, as well as several other airlines. They were all absorbed into Jazz. Jazz is effectively the regional arm of Air Canada.
Air Canada Jetz is for corporate clients. Aircraft and service that sports teams and the like can rent.
Tango is Air Canada’s low cost coast to coast domestic service to compete with Air Transat and the now history, Canada 3000.
Zip is the low frills carrier to compete with Westjet in western Canada, though Air Canada won’t admit this. It is rumoured that if successful, Air Canada may want to impliment this system on its entire domestic network to save money. There are labour issues though.
You can easily see there domination of the domestic market in Canada.
Hope that helps.

I think that A319 looks smart in a kinda classic way.

Is Air BC not just a franchise, like BA Express? Air BC flies in the West of Canada (around BC, funnily enough), and there’s another one in the east… Air Ontario or something?

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 02-10-02 AT 06:10Â PM (GMT)]Zip’s c/s is rather peculiar,I do think its bad…looks kind of bubbly and vibrant.
Don’t Air Canada operate Tango as well or is that a seperate airline?

RE: Pic of the day… Canadian Gathering!
I agree with you completely re: zip. There are four colors in all, I don’t know what they were thinking at AC.
