Air Canada is offering flight passes, a subscription model somewhat like the one I suggested a year ago. Prices are pretty crummy, at least from the perspective of a leisure traveler--$540 to fly within the eastern half of Canada, for example. I'm not clear if they can be used to buy tickets for others, or are good only for the named traveler who bought them. It looks like they are focused on the business traveler, as opposed to my idea for obtaining more marginal-traveler leisure business, while not cannibalizing your high-margin business-travel business.
