it was too late to depart, since Victoria’s runway closes at 12:30 a.m.

Passengers were upset and unprepared to find a place to sleep, and the first person to give them information or advice was a baggage handler

I've been dumped in a random city I didn't agree to go to after midnight, and the airline staff told me to find someone at the counter to talk to about accommodations, knowing full well the counter was closed. Fuck Air Canada

i know it is different times, but my mom would have cinched the belt tight and covered the buckle whether I wanted that or not. 😀

I’m pretty chill and tolerant but that article seemed overly understanding. Gives the guys name though so maybe it’s real. It looks like passengers had to sort their own accommodation which I find odd.

Kozuch said he hasn’t heard anything from Porter but made it onto another Victoria-Toronto flight the next day, noting that it seemed “hilarious” that he had to deboard the first plane with six months of luggage in tow.

He feels lucky that a friend was able to let him crash on the couch at 2:30 a.m. when the flight was cancelled, and said he hasn’t received any word on compensation from the airline.

Right, because It was the parents' fault.

If you were one of the affected passengers and your mood was anything other than your heart being gladdened by the boundless joy of a child monkeying, you have no heart. — sincerely, Society
