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

CAI adapts to paving

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-

Tour agents eye-region

The Inn of the West hosted a

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’ tour through the North By North- west region. The objective of the familiarization tour was to show the participants the scenic, adven- ture, cultural and historic diversity this area has to offer AAA travel clients from Washington and Ore- gon. °

Representing tourist attractions and local businesses in the Terrace area were Matt and Kay Ehses of Northern Light Studio, Bev Green- ing of Greening Tours, Scott Siemens of the Shames Mountain Ski Resort, John Evans of ReMax real estate, and Gordie Judzentis of Fish Tales fishing supplies.

Representing Terrace and District Chamber of Commerce, Terrace Travel’s George Clark welcomed the visitors and presented them with Kermode bear Terrace pins.

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.

Terrace just before dark, but the 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

major airline carrier, AirBC, is an

. Air Canada affiliate, AirBC says it has no plans for staff or service cuts here.
