Favorite Airline To Flee Comedia On

[parsley]

A carry-on only, packed with light clothing, saves
annoyance. Haven't checked a bag for years.
Avoid Air Canada. Delta serves. Westjet is A-plus
except for the dumb jokes. Private planes spoil a
person. Pars

Page 42 of Sask Auto Fund 2013 rate proposal for motorcycles.

Three body types: cruser/touring - average increase 57.6%, or $839.00/yr, maximum $1327.00/yr.

Dual purpose/other - average increase 73.6%, or $416.00/yr, maximum $1033.00/yr

Sport - average increase 128.7%, or $2007.00/yr, maximum $3376.00/yr

On top of insurance is a registration increase of 2-3%. Off these rates is a potential maximum 20% safe driver recognition program rate that is earned over time.

Sask premier Wall indicates he wants SGI to review what it requires to break even as a group/class on motorcycles.

Same here. If it doesn't fit in a 35L
bag then you don't need or its easier to
rent when you get there. The only time I
check bags is for smuggling booze back
into the country. Customs is automated
in Vancouver now.

Glad I don't insure in Saskatchewan.

Yikes!!! That's insane!

[charliep]

Just checking but the numbers quoted are
the proposed increase and not the range
of insurance premiums. Strange given
Saskatchewan is a low population/density
province so risk factor should be lower.
Notbas many corners so riding risk
should be lower as well. My experience
from having lived in both manitoba and
Alberta is that government insurance is
no cheaper than private and often more.

Been riding for years. Current ride is a 1997 Harley tourer. Plates are 1475 - per year minus my discount. Proposed rate will put it at 2450 -. 35 years of riding and these are the rates I have to look forward to. Buddy in Alberta rides same bike and pays around 925.00 for same coverage. My have to license in Alberta.

Customs automated? What does that mean?

[wilagro]

Automation means that some smart computer can now re-route your luggage to Toronto instead of some dumb bi-lingual uncivil servant doing it.
With our present set-up I've seen one (1) bag out of (3) get re-routed which doesn't make sense so now we can expect the same from a computerized system if programmed using the same "logic".

Really what is up with Air Canada? Any other airline the stewards care to the customers. Air canada stewards think they should get cared by the customers. Every air canada flight I have been on the stuards have been like crusty grinches.
