@jonsblond I know, most folks who posted this ended up saying, “That guy who asked for socks must be SO pissed.” But I don’t think it’s fair to complain that someone who is giving something to others is not giving enough or giving the right things. They did a nice, surprising, inventive thing. I think we can just enjoy it.
lol, I read your post again, and realize that’s not what you were saying – but others have done a good job of responding to your point. @ragingloli, I’m a cynic where ads are concerned, but I have no doubt this was real. It’s exactly the kind of thing WestJet would do.
@JLeslie I think our two big Canadian airlines compare very well against American airlines, but I wouldn’t say there’s much to distinguish them from each other. But since Air Canada’s image is to be the stalwart steadfast airline, it’s not going to pull stunts like this.
