| DON'T BUY | 5.740 | Benj Gallander | Has come down quite a bit, but still not a buy for him. He watches this type of thing for a minimum of 6 months but often for a number of years. There is a possibility of more competition in the marketplace. | 2011-10-04 | |
| Comment | 8.600 | James Hodgins | Looks cheap from a valuation perspective. Disappointed on the last couple of quarters. Prefers Westjet (WJA-T). Lower energy prices and the stronger Cdn$ helps Westjet. | 2011-08-30 | |
| BUY | 11.740 | John Zechner | Has been a disappointment in the past year. Have had an earnings warning and there is a lot more competition in the sector. Also rumours of Air Canada coming with discount fare airlines. However they have substantial cash generation. Trading around $12 and have $6-$7 in net cash. Likes it. | 2011-05-02 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 12.500 | John Zechner | (Top Pick Apr 12/10, Flat 0%) The last quarter was sloppy. Margins came under pressure, competition and fuel costs. Still likes it and has owned it for a number of years. | 2011-03-29 | |
| TOP PICK | 12.600 | John Zechner | Have close to $8 in cash on the balance sheet. Sector has consolidation going on. Margins are starting to improve. Low risk. Exceptionally cheap on a cash flow basis. | 2010-04-12 | |
| TOP PICK | 34.140 | John Zechner | Looking for companies that will benefit from a stronger Cdn$ dollar and travel companies are in that category. He is also expecting oil prices to pull back. Close to $10 a share on the balance sheet. | 2007-06-18 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 37.550 | Jean-Francois Tardif | then $24.70. Up 51%. Ben Benefits from the higher Canadian dollar. Short term it's fully priced, in a few years it will benefit from the Canadian dollar. | 2007-05-22 | |
| HOLD | 32.200 | Peter Brieger | Tour business, mainly to the Caribbean, Mexico and Europe. A great company and well run. Trying to acquire travel agents to boost their presence in Ontario. Not a bad entry point, but he would prefer to see it pull back a bit. | 2007-02-02 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 25.750 | Jean-Francois Tardif | (A Top Pick June 5/06. Up 4.3%.) This company will do really well. Some analysts are predicting $3 of earnings next year. Have about $12 of cash per share. Very cheap. | 2006-10-26 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 26.600 | Jean-Francois Tardif | (A Top Pick June 5/06. Up 8%.) Came out with very good earnings. Acquired a competitor for Canada/UK business, which should help the earnings going forward. Should make $3/4 in earnings next year. Have about $12 of cash on the balance sheet. Extremely cheap. | 2006-08-08 | |
| TOP PICK | 24.700 | Jean-Francois Tardif | Margins have started to increase. Bought back 15% of their shares. Have a lot of cash on the balance sheet. | 2006-06-05 |
