The staff is friendly and knowledgeable but...those damn signs (or lack thereof) pointing people to the train platform at Pearson and Union needs to be fixed asap.Edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16899384282803901021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6441168213084499367.post-13579986232009472382016-04-18T18:46:46.843-04:002016-04-18T18:46:46.843-04:00There was an item on the news tonight that UPX loa...There was an item on the news tonight that UPX loadings are skyrocketing, up 165% since the new fares went into effect. That means they are running at 16% of capacity instead of 10%. I do love figures. There are liars, damn liars, and statistics.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11186212591522101893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6441168213084499367.post-57016530386167976992016-04-18T15:45:49.256-04:002016-04-18T15:45:49.256-04:00It probably would have done better had they not pr...It probably would have done better had they not price-gouged all the users for the first 9 months of life.<br /><br />Why anyone would pay so much to ride is beyond me? I took it once because I was already downtown and it ended up cheaper than a service. <br /><br />Plus the fact that it doesn't run 24/7 is a huge let down. A lot of flights - domestic and international - leave in the little hours or land in the little hours. Trying to catch a 6am flight is impossible unless you spend 7 hours in the airport prior to departure.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13230203164105678177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6441168213084499367.post-49376027079447339792016-04-18T15:35:49.274-04:002016-04-18T15:35:49.274-04:00I like it too!
