The Young and the Restless star Eric Braeden had some choice words for Air Canada, ripping into the airline over social media about his son’s recent “dismal” flying experience.
Braeden took to X, formerly Twitter, on Monday to blast the airline after his son was told by company staff that he was too late to travel to Florida on a flight departing Toronto’s Pearson International Airport.
“Air Canada is a dismal airline, with an arrogant staff, mediocre service, etc!” his post starts.
AIR CANADA is a dismal airlines, with an arrogant staff, mediocre service, etc! My son was just at Toronto airport, wanting to leave for FL! He was there in plenty of time for luggage to be stowed; they told him it took 3 hours to do so, obviously he asked why it took that long!!…

The 82-year-old, famous for playing the role of Victor Newman on the long-running soap opera, insisted that there was lots of time for his son to catch the flight.
“He was there in plenty of time for luggage to be stowed; they told him it took three hours to do so, obviously he asked why it took that long!!! He learned later while going through US CUSTOMS THAT IT TOOK A FRACTION THEREOF,” the post continues.
He added that his son was told his luggage was on the plane but that, somehow, he was too late to board.
“He again begged the people at gate to let him on! They refused because he hadn’t been there exactly 3 hours before! He then went to customer service only to encounter some very rude B—H!!! US customs just said ‘welcome to AIR CANADA’!”
“Now, I love VISITING CANADA, but your NATIONAL AIRLINE is NOT GOOD ADVERTISING FOR YOUR COUNTRY!!!”
