RAPIDAIR CELEBRATES 25TH ANNIVERSARY
By Adnews Staff
Air Canada's Rapidair service is celebrating its 25th anniversary and is marking the occasion by offering customers prizes, promotional fares and birthday cake. A high-frequency commuter service, Rapidair offers flights between Toronto and Montreal, Vancouver and Calgary and Edmonton and Calgary. Beginning April 30 and continuing until May 16, each Rapidair flight will announce a winning seat number and give a customer an Aeroplan certificate that can be used towards the purchase of two short-haul return trips. In addition, every day of the celebration, a Rapidair customer will receive an Air Canada Vacations' holiday package for two. Finally, Aeroplan members taking at least three one-way trips on Rapidair during the festivities are entered to win one of two grand prizes of 225,000 Aeroplan miles. A print campaign promoting the Rapidair celebrations and prizes began running last Friday. Montreal-based Marketel handled the ads.
