Low cost carriers The following is a list of low cost carriers organized by home country. A low-cost carrier or low-cost airline (also known as a no-frills, discount or budget carrier or airline) is an airline that offers generally low fares in exchange for eliminating many traditional passenger services. See the low cost carrier article for more information. Regional airlines, which may compete with low-cost airlines on some routes are listed at the article 'List of regional airlines.'

Initiating a Missed Approach Below Mda
Issue No. 9 INITIATING A MISSED APPROACH BELOW MDA So there you are, on approach, inside the FAF and below MDA. You saw the runway and began descent, but it is raining, visibility is marginal and things are murky and scuddy (technical terms). Wind is directly across the runway at 11G18 and you are crabbing down, passengers are nervous. But you are holding the CDI in the center and maintaining control. Over the runway you go into your wing-low sideslip for the crosswind landing, things are going pretty well and then whoops a big gust destabilizes you so you abort the landing. Now what do you do, go missed or go around for another landing attempt? To provide some context, let’s attach the scenario to an interesting little airport, Andrews- Murphy Airport, NC (KRHP). The instrument approach procedure (IAP) and the takeoff minima and obstacle departure procedure are shown here. This airport is nestled in a scenic valley surrounded by mountains, which are quite close on the north. A topo map can be viewed here or just go to the TopoZone website and search for Andrews, NC, or go to the airport lat/long of 3512N/08352W. You will notice that the MDA is 2329 feet above the runway. Now remember that obstacle protection on a missed approach procedure is based on going missed at the MAP at MDA with a minimum climb gradient of 200 feet per nautical mile. No obstacle protection is assured when you go missed below MDA or past the MAP. In fact, you are not assured of obstacle protection even above MDA if the missed is initiated below MDA or after the MAP. -
2004 Annual General Meeting
2004 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING Address by Garth F. Atkinson President and Chief Executive Officer April 21, 2004 Thank you Tom and good morning ladies and gentlemen. At this point, it is my great pleasure to introduce the other members of our senior staff who are here this morning: Mr. Julien DeShutter - Vice President Airport Marketing Mr. Frank Jakowski - Vice President Finance and Chief Financial Officer Mr. Bob Schmitt -Vice President Airport Development Mr. John Terpstra - Senior Director Terminal Operations Mr. Wayne Smook - Senior Director Airside Operations Mrs. Myrna Dube – Senior Director Land & Business Development Mr. Stephan Poirier, Senior Director, Passenger & Air Cargo Development is currently away on business. I would also like to acknowledge all Airport Authority staff members who have taken time out of their day to join us here this morning. This Annual General Meeting is one of our key opportunities to demonstrate accountability to our stakeholders, by reporting on both the results of operations for the past year, as well as the main objectives for 2004. Our responsibility to be accountable is exercised in a number other ways, including the preparation of an annual report which is being released today, annual meetings with the four bodies that appoint members to our Board of Directors, independent reviews every five years, an extensive regulatory environment for airport operations, extensive commitments to Transport Canada under our Canada Lease and a wide range of meetings with airlines, three levels of government and many civic groups throughout the year. 1 We operate both the Calgary International and Springbank Airports. 2003 was an exciting year for these airports and I am pleased to report that the Airport Authority met all key financial and operational objectives. -

Copyright © 2016, Richard Ivey School of Business Foundation Version: 2016-06-20 As the 2016 budget planning cycle for WestJet Airlines Ltd. (WestJet) was finishing up in October 2015, Richard Bartrem, vice-president of marketing and communications, met with Greg Hounslow, manager of social media, to discuss the growth and evolution of WestJet’s social media presence. As Canada’s second largest airline, WestJet had already achieved immense success with social media and had ambitions to expand its social media presence. However, it became clear through the budgeting cycle that the department’s budget for 2016 was going to remain flat. This posed a challenge for Bartrem and Hounslow as they were in the process of evaluating the launch of two new social media platforms in 2016: Snapchat and Pinterest. -
Chapter: 4. Approaches
Chapter 4 Approaches Introduction This chapter discusses general planning and conduct of instrument approaches by pilots operating under Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Parts 91,121, 125, and 135. The operations specifications (OpSpecs), standard operating procedures (SOPs), and any other FAA- approved documents for each commercial operator are the final authorities for individual authorizations and limitations as they relate to instrument approaches. While coverage of the various authorizations and approach limitations for all operators is beyond the scope of this chapter, an attempt is made to give examples from generic manuals where it is appropriate. 4-1 Approach Planning within the framework of each specific air carrier’s OpSpecs, or Part 91. Depending on speed of the aircraft, availability of weather information, and the complexity of the approach procedure Weather Considerations or special terrain avoidance procedures for the airport of intended landing, the in-flight planning phase of an Weather conditions at the field of intended landing dictate instrument approach can begin as far as 100-200 NM from whether flight crews need to plan for an instrument the destination. Some of the approach planning should approach and, in many cases, determine which approaches be accomplished during preflight. In general, there are can be used, or if an approach can even be attempted. The five steps that most operators incorporate into their flight gathering of weather information should be one of the first standards manuals for the in-flight planning phase of an steps taken during the approach-planning phase. Although instrument approach: there are many possible types of weather information, the primary concerns for approach decision-making are • Gathering weather information, field conditions, windspeed, wind direction, ceiling, visibility, altimeter and Notices to Airmen (NOTAMs) for the airport of setting, temperature, and field conditions. -

Turbulence in the Skies
C.D. Howe Institute Commentary www.cdhowe.org No. 181, April 2003 ISSN 8001-824 Turbulence in the Skies: Options for Making Canadian Airline Travel More Attractive Fred Lazar In this issue... Should it matter to Canadian travelers and Canadians in general whether any Canadian airline survives to provide domestic service? The unequivocal answer is: You bet it matters! The Study in Brief This Commentary focuses on recommendations set out by the Canada Transportation Act Review Panel on permitting foreign entry into the domestic airline market and on the competitive landscape in passenger aviation services in Canada. The paper concentrates on the scope for new entry into the Canadian market, the likelihood that new entrants might, in fact, occur if the Canadian market is opened to foreign airlines and investors and the potential market impact if that did happen. If the federal government succeeds in negotiating a more liberal agreement with the United States, the Commentary argues that there would be limited entry at best — there are a very small number of markets in Canada that provide entry opportunities — and the entry might end up displacing Canadian companies in terms of the routes they operate and the number of frequencies they provide on existing routes. Even limited entry would weaken the financial performance of Westjet Airlines Ltd., though it might actually benefit Air Canada because it could use modified existing rights to maximize the benefits of its Toronto hub within a North American market. While I fully support the recommendations of the Review Panel, I believe that the competitive consequences for the domestic Canadian market of a bilateral agreement with the United States are likely to be minimal.
