I'll bet this makes ziggy happy!
I'm on Canadian north,no prob but I am sure I will get stuck somewhere....without my luggage.
A spokesperson for the airline told CBC News on Tuesday that the Bombardier regional jets used on Jazz flights to and from the Northwest Territories' capital are not certified to operate at or below �40 C.
New's to me.There in the Arctic for fucks sake,temp.s tommorow are supposed to be -56
Canada North flys in that all the time,and I get a hot meal to boot!
All of Air Tindi's flights were also cancelled Tuesday because of cold weather
I know,they flew me to edmonton and then ripped up my boarding pass and gave me my baggage tag so I could get my bags,i was on my own.
The weathers got better though up there,the winds died down a bit but the windchill still makes it feel like -57 or colder at camp.

You would think they'd have certified them for temps lower then that, since they are made in Canada.
Now would be the perfect time to do it too.
