Navigating Europe: Essential Tips for Canadian Travelers in 2024

As a Canadian traveler venturing across the Atlantic to explore the rich history, diverse cultures, and stunning landscapes of Europe, there are several key considerations to keep in mind. Whether you’re backpacking through cobblestone streets or savoring croissants in a Parisian café, these ten tips will enhance your European adventure: Visa Requirements: Know Before You Go Research visa requirements for each European country you plan to visit. Some countries allow Canadians to enter visa-free, while others may require a Schengen visa. Ensure your passport is valid for at least six months beyond your travel dates. Currency Exchange and Payment Methods Familiarize yourself with the local currency. Euros are widely accepted, but some countries (like the United Kingdom and Switzerland) have their own currencies. Use credit cards for convenience, but carry some cash for smaller purchases. Health Insurance and EHIC Card Obtain comprehensive travel insurance that covers medical emergencies.

Flair Airlines Ordered to Pay $67 Million in Unpaid Taxes by Federal Government

                                                                                      

Documents show Flair Airlines, a Canadian budget airline, has been ordered by the federal government to pay $67.2 million in unpaid taxes. The money owed is related to import duties on the 20 Boeing 737 Max jetliners that make up the airline’s fleet. Court documents reveal that the Canada Revenue Agency has obtained an order for the seizure and sale of the carrier’s property.

Flair Airlines CEO Stephen Jones has stated that the company has a deal with the Canada Revenue Agency to pay the taxes and is current with that plan. The Federal Court order obtained by the tax agency in November has no impact on the carrier’s operations, which have expanded over the past year and ramped up competition with rival airlines.

The airline has been in the news recently for its legal battles with leasing manager Airborne Capital and three other leasing firms. Flair Airlines launched a $50-million court action against the four companies, arguing that ongoing demands for payment from the four companies were “baseless”.
