Interesting. I know that credit card holders in the US can
refuse to pay the bill because the banks can't pass through a
charge for a service they've never received. The banks then
have to go after the airline for whatever compensation they
can get. The same doesn't apply in Canada?

Yes, the same applies here. When "Canada 3000" airline went under a few
years ago, credit card holders were the only people that got all their money
back, if you paid cash or cheque (check) you got about 10 cents on the
dollar -- that happened to my neighbour.

Re: JetsGo Scumbags (Canadian Discount Airline gone under)
I think Jetsgo bought some of the planes.
Apparently the CEO of Jetsgo was the CEO of Canada3000.
Get this....his business plan was to fly inefficient planes (fuel-wise) and
minimize maintenance (boom..what was that!).
After fuel prices went way up they started losing...something like 58million
in the last 6months.
Now, 58million is a LOT in Canada!
