We've all heard of our YVR Hub, which is fast becoming North America's finest gateway to Asia. Well, span the country to Canada's rugged east coast and you'll find another hub in our Canadian operation with a gateway all its own.

Halifax's hub-and-spoke operation connects our customers in the Atlantic provinces to and from destinations such as Stephenville, Gander, St. John's, Deer Lake, Saint John, Fredericton, Moncton, Sydney and Charlottetown.

The Great Canadian Face-Off

More than 300 employees from seven bases across Canada converged on Calgary from February 3 - 5, 1998 for the 10th Annual Canadian Airlines Transcon Hockey Tournament. Dubbed the 'Great Canadian Face-Off', 12 teams competed for top honours in three divisions, with representation from our bases in Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Winnipeg, Edmonton, Vancouver and Calgary.

Participants came from Reservations, Maintenance & Engineering, Inflight, Flight Operations, Airports and Canadian Regional. Fifty-seven games were played in total over the three days.

The winners were: Division A, Vancouver Crunch; Division B, Edmonton Pluggers and Division C, Ottawa Capitals.
