Experts: Federal government approves Air Canada purchase of Transat A.T. Inc.

Published: 12 February 2021

The federal government has approved Air Canada's purchase of competing airline Transat A.T. Inc. under a series of strict terms and conditions the government says "are in the interest of Canadians." A statement released by the transport minister's office said the impact of COVID-19 was a key factor in the final decision to approve the purchase. ()

Here are some experts from 成人VR视频 that can provide comment on this issue:

Consolidation in the Canadian airline industry has historically led to concentration of market and pricing power, reducing markets served and eliminating low fares. The conditions placed on the Canadian government鈥檚 approval of this purchase reflect their concern on these issues, but the implementation of such oversight remains a question mark.

This is the worst time for airlines in aviation history, so it makes sense for the two to combine. On the other hand, it will significantly reduce competition in Canada.鈥
