From the Paper:
"Canada's airline industry has expanded and grown to serve domestic and international routes for more than sixty-two years. Air Canada (AC) and Canadian Airlines International (CAI), both national airlines of Canada, vie for the largest segment of the public air travel market. Domestically, these two airlines currently serve eighty percent (80%) of the market. Several regional airlines (feeder airlines) provide access to the lesser traveled parts of the nation and typically serve smaller niche markets. The largest regional operator is Westjet, serving twelve destinations from Thunder Bay, Ontario west to Victoria, B.C.. Other regional operators include Air BC, Air Ontario, Air Nova, Air Alliance, and Canadian Regional Airlines."Cite this Essay:
