I've flown Tango to Vancouver a couple of times - no "catch" except perhaps that they don't serve food. You can buy sandwiches on board ($5) although twice when I've flown them they've run out so I suggest eating beforehand or buying something and bringing it onboard. One advantage is that if a flight is cancelled they shift the passengers over to regular Air Canada flights rather than having to wait for another aircraft.

Make sure you do a cost comparison on the net. <BR>WESTJET will almost always come in lower than TANGO. Tango adds in all these extra fees.<BR>Watch the final total.<BR>Tango @ $69 ends up being more than Westjet @ $89. I have never had a<BR>complaint or delay with Westjet.

Westjet also adds in "extra fees"! Read the small print! The advertised fares do not include the exorbitant taxes!

Flying WestJet is always a more pleasant experience than flying on any carrier run by Air Canada. Unfortunately Air Canada has not placed much emphasis on service.

Susan,<BR>If you go to check the reservations on line they will give you the final prices after all taxes. This is where you will see the difference in prices. [extra fees] Sometimes they get pretty close, however even if Tango came in a bit better I would still choose Westjet. They have always done right by me. Anthony, But perhaps they do not fly out of Toronto. Not Sure.<BR>Let us know how you make out.<BR>Have fun<BR>Jan

support westjet if you can. they are a great airline and i don't want to see them pushed out of the market. i heard westjet was going to or has already started flying out of toronto.<BR>i've had luggage lost a few times and the carriers always deliver it to my home. westjet missed a piece of my luggage last month. they not only delivered it the next morning but gave me a $25 voucher for the inconvenience.

Yes, Westjet does fly out of Toronto now. They started about a month ago.
