32 Terrace Review —— Wednesday, September 25, 1991

Schedule safe, but no
in wake of airline budget cuts. |

TERRACE — Canadian Airlines
International is committed to get-
ting rid of 1,300 employees by the
end of the year, but a spokesman
for the company said Monday that
service reductions to Terrace are
not part of the plan.

Goodridge said the: company
already had its winter schedule set

for Terrace when the staff-cutting
plans were announced. “There
aren’t any changes planned to
flights or services [in Terrace], but
we may change some of the air-
craft on the bigger routes. For
example, from Calgary to Toronto
people may be flying in an [Air-
bus] A310 instead of a 737." As

TERRACE — Canadian Airlines
Intemational has had to revise its
service to cope with continuing
runway work at the Terrace-Kiti-
mat Airport. Starting Monday the
airline’s evening flight was tem-
porarily taken over by CAI affili-
ate carrier Time Air, using a turbo-
prop aircraft. —

Paving and rebuilding work on
one of the main runways has pre-
vented after-dark service because
the runway lights have been taken
out. A labour dispute and other
factors have put the work behind
schedule, prompting fears that if
cold weather prevents the work
from being finished there will be
no commercial night flights into
‘Terrace at all this winter. —

Lloyd Scott, manager of Kentron
Construction, the company doing
the runway work, said yesterday,
"We just need some cooperation
from the weather. If we get a week
of good weather we'll have the
~ back of the job broken.”

CAI Tertace representative Terry
Morris said last week the company
was attempting to change schedul-

ing to allow jet service out of

reception Sept. 18 for 20 members
of the Triple AAA Travel counsel-
lors and travel agents co-sponsored
by Terrace & District Chamber of
Commerce.

The North by Northwest Tourism
Association and the Canadian
Consulate General’s office in
Seattle organized the travel agents’

From Terrace, the group travelled

to Prince Rupert and in the five
days following, visited Ketchikan,
Stewart, Smithers, Houston, Burns
Lake, Vanderhoof, Fort St. James
and Prince George.

changes would have created so
many disruptions in other areas of
CAI’s service that they decided it,
wasn’t worth it. The company
began referring evening flight
passengers to competing AirBC,
but then decided to bring in Time
Air.
The situation will be reassessed
by CAI Sept. 27, Morris said.

part of its program to cut cost by.
$116 million per year by 1993, the
airline is also selling off some
aircraft and taking others out of
service.

Although flights are apparently
not being phased out, it could be a
different story for CAI employees
based in Terrace. Goodridge said
each department has been issued
budget guidelines and cuts could
occur anywhere. All employees
have been told, Goodridge said,
that if they’re going: to go. they'll
be notified by November.

Air Canada also announced deep | f

job cuts last week, intending to lay
off about-800 people in the near
future, Although Terrace’s second

has no plans for staff or service
cuts here.
