any word on what kind of measures are being taken @ YEG with regards to swine flu?

MrOilers · #**3712** Posted **Apr 28, 2009, 4:33 PM**

I don't know, but the Emergency Departments at the hospitals are all taking special note when planes from Mexico are landing.

Coldrsx · #**3713** Posted **Apr 28, 2009, 5:24 PM**

i hear that they have most canadian airports with thermal 🞵🞵🞵🞵 to check deplaning passengers from the US and mex.

wow, your statement reads QUITE differently if you happen to miss the word thermal!

interesting though, thx

MrOilers · #**3715** Posted **Apr 28, 2009, 6:32 PM**

If I was a sci-fi writer, the alien invaders would totally be using thermal 🞵🞵🞵🞵 to vaporize us.

Bigtime · #**3716** Posted **Apr 28, 2009, 7:35 PM**

Us suckers in both YEG and YYC, so happy to see direct service from Mexico by their airlines...it was a trap!

tuffyy · #**3717** Posted **Apr 28, 2009, 9:47 PM**

^Thanks Bigtime!

Update from Cancun-Riviera Maya, as of right now many airlines are cancelling inbound flights or are advising travellers to cancel or use extreme caution.Flights are arrving to pick up passengers still here (Transat, Skyservice, USA 3000 etc)

Spent the day at the airport with a mask on and avoided the departures and arrival area.

My wife is worried and I am worried about my son.As of now I feel fine as does everyone else in the house.And we are taking super extra care with lots of hand sanitizer and avoiding as much contact with others as possible.

Otherwise just another great day in the Riviera Maya.

My advice would be to stay away until things clear up...

Rocket252 · #**3718** Posted **Apr 28, 2009, 11:05 PM**

^ Stay well tuffyy

Let's hope this is temporary and we can get back to travelling to Mexico soon.

Cancun/Maya is a great place to vacation

Check this out - just stumbled onto this letter from the Journal. Is this guy pulling the highlighted info out of his 🞵🞵🞵🞵 or something?! There's NO way WestJet'd be allowed to fly into YXD with those scheduled restrictions in place. This sounds like a ludicrous attempt to add fuel to this ridiculous debate! (or better yet, beating a dead horse?)

I know the airport debate's getting so tiresome to many of you and I agree it's got to end ASAP, therefore I apologize for posting this. However, I felt I had to post this in case any of you want to write a reply to refute this ludicrousity.

Plus, the name of the writer sounds familiar to me somehow - can't quite put a finger on it, but I have a disturbed feeling about this.

LRT could service Muni

The Edmonton JournalApril 26, 2009

Re: "All aboard for south side; New McKernan/Belgravia, South Campus LRT stations open next weekend," The Journal, April 18.

The opening of two new stations this weekend shows the LRT's progress to the south.

There is also need for progress in the planned construction to the north and eventually toward St. Albert. The LRT station near NAIT should be designed to be the Edmonton City Centre Airport terminal, as well as serving NAIT and Kingsway Mall.

Architectural design and construction of the terminal would accommodate expanded airport service to serve commuter travellers, as well.

Both WestJet and Pilgrim Air are rumoured to be considering commuter service from the City Centre Airport, and co-ordination with the LRT makes sense.

The near future can be an active commuter air service, co-ordinated with long range and international service from the Edmonton International Airport.

Even without the scheduled restrictions, WestJet's series 600/700/800 NG 737 aircraft are too large for the airport - they need a longer runway at that pressure altitude than is available. The 737s that used to fly out of there in the 70s were much smaller, and they were only flying short distances and were not taking off at full take-off weight. Even then, they had to use short field take off techniques to get the plane off the ground.
