B2 - The Terrace Standard, Wednesday, February 12, 2003 Jazz on the block AIR CANADA has announced it will sell its regio- nal Jazz carrier amid news of more losses for the country’s largest airline company.

It will also seek more wage and other concessions from its workers. Jazz serves the northwest. with daily flights from Vancouver to Smithers, Terrace and Prince Rupert. On Jan,’ 6, Jazz ‘pulled its Bae-146 jet from the Vancouver to Terrace run,.in part because of skim- py passenger loads. It also seemed to be a ripple effect as the Bae- 146 was then put into service on the Vancouver to Whitehorse run.

With the Bae-146 gone from here, Jazz is now using Dash-8 versions that carry either 37 or 57 passengers. The departure of the Bae-146, at least for the moment, marks an end to more than two decades of jet service into Terrace.
