News from Air Canada + Korean Air + More

Air Canada flights on, then off

On Sunday afternoon, Air Canada said it was suspending its plan to resume limited flying by Air Canada and Air Canada Rouge after striking flight attendants represented by the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) defied the government’s back-to-work order.

Instead, the airline says it now plans to resume flights on Monday evening.

Air Canada Express flights operated by Jazz or PAL continue to operate as normal, but for passengers with flights on other Air Canada flights, the carrier has this advice:

Customers whose flights are cancelled will be notified and are strongly advised not to go the airport unless they have confirmed flights on other airlines. Air Canada will offer those with cancelled flights options, including obtaining a full refund or receiving a credit for future travel. The carrier will also offer to rebook customers on other carriers, although capacity is currently limited due to the peak summer travel season.

Cute Korean Air kits for kids

Korean Air has rolled out a charming new collection of amenities for kids that include a hooded beach towel, a memory foam neck pillow, slippers, socks, and an airplane keyring, as well as a coloring pack, a doodle book and a paper airplane.

The items available are adjusted by route length and season across short, medium, and long-haul flights.

Art tour of SEA Airport

The art collection at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) was started back in the 1970s and is now one of the more extensive and valuable airport art collections in the United States.

Here’s a fun video put together by Seattle’s Museum of Flight that includes a tour of just a few of the pieces you’ll see when you visit the airport.
