• Air Canada Service Staff Get Bonus

  
  

  MONTREAL (Reuters) - Pleased with workers who scored top marks on customer service, Air Canada recently picked 100 at random to give them a bonus -- a $3.78 hamburger coupon that expires in five weeks.

  
  

  Some Air Canada in-flight service employees were forced to forgo a bonus earlier this year when the airline won court protection from its creditors and squeezed some $840,000 of concessions from its unions.

  
  

  The burger bonus comes as two groups bidding to control Montreal-based Air Canada have offered its chief executive and top restructuring manager multimillion-dollar bonuses to remain with the airline through its bankruptcy protection proceedings
