Untitled[edit]

I added the airline info box. Please add on missing information or correct exisiting information.

Canadian Plus[edit]

Could someone expand on the frequent flyer section? I've recently aquired a card from my grandfather that says Canadian Plus Presiden't Club. I hope this helps Spyco 09:43, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fleet[edit]

I saw on one of the aviation websites that says Canadi>n had 163 aircrafts. I added the number in the airlines info box. Can someone please confirm if the number is correct? Thanks.

I reorganized part of the fleet section to now be split between Mainline and Regional. All of the aircraft types listed were photographed in the full Canadian livery on various aviation databases. Pacific Coastal is the exception having just the Canadian Partner logo on their standard livery. Choneyman1 (talk) 09:56, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Demise[edit]

I would like to see a section outlining the demise of the airline and the eventual sale to Air Canada. Would anyone like to take this on?JEdward 18:43, 30 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have added a section dealing with the demise of Canadian Airlines, the Onex bid and subsequent Air Canada takeover. Gfengstad (talk) 04:43, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
