It’s all very confusing, Pumpkins. WestJet is introducing a pseudo business class and they’ve hired a psalesman. Now that’s unkind. I’ve known many accountants with sales skills. Well, that’s not true but I do want to make Lyell Farquharson, new V.P. Sales of WestJet, feel welcome.
I have a front loading big bill counter in my boudoir, dahrling, if you need any help with those profits. I’m also rather well versed in the double entry method.
And about WestJet’s ex-commitment to being classless. Introducing ‘premium economy seats’ is like trying to be half a virgin, dahrlings. As Head Mistress Grimble used to say: “Girls, you either go all the way, or you keep your knees tucked neatly in the allotted pitch.”
How long before the teasing gives way to surrendering to the desires of the business traveller? I’ve seen it before. A little meal, a little lubrication, the curtain goes up – and voila! You have C class.
Air Canada, on the other hand, is going no class with a spanking new pseudo-WS airline. Well I say, bully for them. You’re never too big or too old to learn new tricks. Or to become profitable.
