Canadian Regional Airlines was an airline headquartered in Calgary International Airport in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.  It operated as a feeder airline for
Canadian
Airlines International and is now part of Air Canada Jazz.
Time Air operated Fokker F28 Fellowship twin jets as Canadian Regional flights.  At one point, Time Air was the largest F28 operator in the world.
Canadian Regional operated 7 ATR 42-300s turboprops between 1993 and 1998 when they were transferred to Inter-Canadien.  Those ATR42 came from Ontario Express who first operated them in 1988.  This was the first airline to import and operate them in Canada.  Ontario Express was also the first airline to import in Canada the Jetstream 31 in 1987, when the company first started its operations in Ontario.  Both the Jetstream J31 and the ATR42 proved to be very successful aircraft in the regional airline environment.  Canadian Regional also operated 13 de Havilland Canada DHC-8-100 Dash 8 and 15 stretched de Havilland Canada DHC-8-300 Dash 8 turboprops from 1994 until the consolidation.  Many still operate as Air Canada Jazz planes.
Canadian Airlines International Ltd. (stylized as Canadi›n Airlines or Canadi‹n Airlines, or just simply Canadian) was a Canadian airline that operated from 1987 until 2001.  The airline was Canada's second largest airline after Air Canada, carrying more than 11.9 million passengers to over 160 destinations in 17 countries on five continents at its height in 1996.  Canadian Airlines served 105 destinations in Canada, more than any other airline. Canadian Airlines was also a founding member of the Oneworld airline alliance.
Canadian Airlines was headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, and had revenue of approximately billion at the end of 1999.  The airline and its aircraft were acquired by Air Canada in 2000, and the merger was officially completed on January 1, 2001.
Canadian Airlines International was the principal subsidiary of its parent company Canadian Airlines Corporation.  The new airline was formed on March 27, 1987, when Pacific Western Airlines purchased Canadian Pacific Air Lines (which operated as CP Air for a number of years), which in turn had recently acquired Eastern Provincial Airways and Nordair.
In 1989, Canadian Airlines acquired Wardair, giving them access to new routes including long-sought-after routes to the UK and Europe.  Its major hubs were at Montréal-Dorval International Airport (now known as Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport), Toronto Pearson International Airport, Vancouver International Airport, and Calgary International Airport.
Canadian Airlines streamlined its operations and went through the financial restructuring of over 0 million in debt, after the 1991 airline industry slump.  It was further aided by an injection of cash from the American Airlines Group.
On November 1, 1996, Kevin Benson, then president and CEO, unveiled a restructuring strategy to improve the profitability of Canadian Airlines.  The operational restructuring plan was supposed to be phased in over a four-year period, addressing the main issues of cost control, revenue growth, capitalization and fleet renewal.  It was also one of the founding members of the Oneworld airline alliance, along with Qantas, American Airlines, British Airways and Cathay Pacific.  The plan started off well but with the Asian economic downturn in 1998, air traffic decreased and Canadian was suffering on what was previously its most profitable route.
Canadian Plus was the largest frequent flyer program in Canada with more than 60 airline, hotel, car rental, and financial partners worldwide. The program had more than three million members.
In its last few years of operation, Canadian Airlines extended its international route network in Asia, with the most recent expansion of service to the Philippines, which gave it seven destinations in Asia.  At that time Canadian Airlines had the distinction of flying to more places in Asia, more often, than any other Canadian carrier.
Canadian Airlines' core business strategy focused on building its Vancouver hub into the leading gateway between North America and Asia.  It leveraged its codesharing agreement with American Airlines in order to help capture a greater share of U.S.-Asia traffic flows.
After continued poor performance, Canadian Airlines was acquired by Air Canada in 2000.  Numerous other proposals for survival had been considered and rejected, including a competing bid led by American Airlines to purchase Canadian Airlines. American Airlines had already owned a 25% stake in Canadian Airlines, the maximum allowed under regulations.  Then-American CEO Donald J. Carty, who had formerly headed Canadian predecessor Canadian Pacific Air Lines, planned to acquire a controlling interest in the new Air Canada, with the purpose of moving it from the Star Alliance to Oneworld.  American has since sold its shares in Air Canada, after unsuccessfully lobbying Canadian federal government to ease foreign ownership restrictions on Canadian airlines.
At the time of merger, Canadian Airlines carried over 40% of the domestic share of passengers in Canada.  Following the completion of the acquisition, Air Canada controlled over 90% of the domestic share of passengers, and dominated international and US-Canada transborder traffic.
