You're not the first well-known person to publicly speak out against Air Canada. Idk what Robert's problem was. You might appreciate this RUclipsr's rant: watch?v=Qvq5L79lgpU
@@davidsmock8235 You probably watched the same video, but interpreted it differently. If you watch Steve's other heckler vids, you will see that he is definitely not messing with the man, but even including him in the COMEDY show. He clearly shows recognition for the elder individual, but at the same time, he continues the show.
Air Canada once told me they had my reservation, but because I wasn't at Pearson 2hrs beforehand they sold my seat to somebody else. Air Canada is great at taking reservations, they're just not great at HOLDING the reservation.
That's messed up but like why would you travel with a one plane leeway to your grandma's funeral? I feel like that's something you should plan for so nothing can go wrong.
It sounds like Robert is one of those guys that grew up in the era where you pledged absolute loyalty to your company regardless of what shady shit they do because you value personal loyalty over professional integrity.
I liked how you treated him, you still made it fun and did not attack him personally. He was obviously an older gentleman who's worked hard at his job, and he felt attacked which is more than understandable.
The unbelievable thing is that when I read this all I hear from the video from Robert is that "I've got 17 people with me" and the video has 17 dislikes at the time I'm watching
I have flown with Air Canada once. It only took 10 years of therapy to get over. I am an Englishman, and we always think of Canadians as awfully nice people, so assume everything they do will be nice. I was living in Mexico City, back in 2007, and wanted to go to Buenos Aires, to meet a girl that I had spent years chatting to online. Most of the tickets were over 800usd. Air Canada was 580usd. Bargain I thought. Until I got to the baggage check. I had 2 bags at 30 kg allowance. Neither of my cases was over 25 and I had a camera bag and a suit bag with 3 suits in it. They charged me 150 USD for that bag. Lufthansa has never charged me for excess baggage. So the story goes on. The plane was practically empty yet I had to sit in the allocated seat even though there were many empty seats. So the guy next to me and I got into conversation. He was being sent to work in Mexico City by his company, and had been getting to know the city. I was flying to Buenos Aires, so you might think the quickest route would be south from Mexico, but my this flight was going to Toronto, my connecting flight was to la paz. Less than an hour into the flight the attendant brought us a sandwich and a soda. She then asked for 8 dollars. I only had USD Mexican pesos and Argentinian peso on me. None of which was acceptable. I said to the attendant that I had never been charged for a meal on an international flight. "This is a domestic flight". She said. "But we are crossing 2 international borders". I pointed out. "Yeah, but Air Canada considers this a domestic flight. The guy next to me gave me the 8 Canadian dollars. I gave him 200 pesos and said that he could treat himself and his wife to a steak dinner in Mexico City for that. After a while the attendant brought out a trolly from which she was selling duty free goods. I pointed out that duty free goods cannot be sold on domestic flights, to which she retorted that we were crossing two international borders. Never let it be said that Canadians don't understand irony. The fun continues when I get to Pearson. I had a 5 hour wait for my connecting flight to La Paz. 5 hours became 6 then 7 finally after 8.5 hours the flight was called. We arrived at La Paz about 30 minutes before our connecting flight was due to take off, with suggestions to run to the departure gate. We did and all had a great view of the runway as our plane took off. We were assured that they would get us on the next flight. 2 hours later we were on our way.... To Montevideo. Yeah I know it's not in Argentina, but in aviation terms it is pretty close. In those days Montevideo airport was a rather tired looking 1940s terminal. With some equally out dated equipment. The pilot told us we needed to refuel. We were parked a long way from any buildings. The refuelling rig arrived. To my surprise a guy arrived with a small bowser towed by what looked like a golf buggy. He then hand pumped the contents into the plane. When it was empty, he went away to refill it and came back to resume fueling the plane. This took 2 hours and at least 5 different pump guys. At least on this leg of the journey we did get a hot meal which was not charged for. I finally got to Buenos Aires airport 5 hours late. I was unable to tell the girl that I would be delayed. I was amazed that she was waiting there for me. So I did have a happy ending, no thanks to Air Canada.
Had to ship my Dad's ashes back to Scotland about 2.5 years ago. Dealt with a customs broker in Scotland - no problem. Dealt with Air Canada via their toll-free freight number, no problem, they confirmed what I had to do with packaging and addressing the box to the broker in Scotland - essentially what I already knew. But the Air Canada staff in Penticton, BC, were idiots. I had to take time off work to get the box on the morning flight, and it was refused. They pulled BS about how they needed authorization from some rectal interface in another city, so we missed that flight (and yes, even for a box of ashes, it was important to make that first flight so that it could make all the connecting flights). After work I called the AC freight people and the guy there was more than patient with my anger (it wasn't his fault) and walked me through all the steps again.. Gave me a new confirmation number and I took time off work the next morning to drop Dad off at the airport. Now I'm showing up before the first AC flight of the day, so the airport is deserted, and I'm not in anyone's way and everything should be simple. Wrong. The people working there are used to making puppies as it's a small airport with few flights and they're making good wages for doing squat. And they're the kings and queens of their little hill. Package refused again for a bogus reason and at this time I'm getting testy, but that's a bad thing to do in an airport where the only people around are Air Canada dog fuckers and and armed security guard. So i go to work, late again, with Dad in the trunk of my car. I call the Air Canada freight number the next morning (about 4 am my time) and start to explain when the guy cuts me off. "You're the guy with the ashes, aren't you." i say yes, and he tells me that they've been talking about it, and to hold on. Another guy comes on and goes ballistic when I told him the package with my Dad's ashes had been refused again. I told him what the dipshits in Penticton had told me. He essentially told me that he was sorry but that he was angry with me. He told me that he was in the process of sending an order to Penticton and if they gave me any trouble to tell them to refer to their "scratch sheet". I walked in as soon as the airport opened (again making me late for work) with the box, glared at the security guard on my way past, banged the box on the counter and waited about five minutes for the two idjits to come out of the back. By now I should have been on a first name basis with all of them. They could tell I was mad, and tried to go through their slow motion "we have to check everything" bullshit when I just told them to shut up and check their "scratch sheet". They waddled back to where their other computer was, and I don't know what it said, but the transaction was completed in a damned hurry when they got back. No apologies from them for my lost work time over three mornings, no apologies for the anguish this was causing my mother and I, just pay here and get out. So even with the support I got from the Air Canada freight guys over the phone (thanks guys) based on the service I got from senior local Air Canada assholes in Penticton, BC in a trying and emotional time - fuck Air Canada. The only one in our family who didn't care was Dad - and he was scattered in a favourite trout river in Scotland.
Atleast your dad is hanging out with the nature and beautiful beasties of scotland. And not with the douchtards who exist to cause friction and output nothing. If you happen to see this; May the rest of the year be especially calm, and the ground you walk forever soft.
@@dm3402 It's all good. This was almost three years ago. Got the video of Dad's youngest brother scattering the ashes in the river (where he and Mum courted) and pics of the remaining few family and friends in Scotland having a tea after. I must say that the wake we had in Canada with the Legion group my Dad was a part of was appropriately raucous, with his children, grandchildren and all his buddies in attendance. Too much beer (we were told we were close to the record), many laughs and though everyone felt the loss (more his friends, i think), no tears. That was the true send off. But still, fuck Air Canada. Thanks for your kind words, they are truly appreciated.
#WestJet , give this man a free flight!!! Ive been flying westjet for years, since about 2001. havent flown with AirCanada since the 90's, and refuse to ever do so again!!
As a Canadian, let me tell you, you're not alone in that hate for Air Canada... first time flying to Europe, I had a connection before my flight from Toronto to Warsaw, and they lost my luggage, before my connection. I made my flight to Warsaw (with Lot - no complaints about them), but my luggage didn't. My luggage went to Montreal, but it did eventually catch up with me. Only 3 days washing the clothes I wore on the flight every evening, and letting them dry overnight so they could be worn again the next day.
@@ATEC101 why the F**K should I have to buy new clothes? How about the clown-shoes wearing ground crew gets their collective-shit together, and do their damn jobs?
Steve, this is, by far, my favourite clip of yours. I've been a loyal fan for a few years, I was one of all of three people that bought tickets for your show in Israel. Please (try) come again
An Air Canada story: A few years ago, I was traveling back home to visit a friend who ultimately died of cancer. Around every six weeks, I would fly from Nassau to Thunder Bay on various airlines on lowest price tickets for a visit. Six weeks before she died, I was in Thunder Bay and was scheduled for a Sunday morning flight back south. Sunday morning, I was at the Air Canada counter trying to make a decision on whether to stay a few more hours for another visit. The agent said that there were lots of seat availability that day and I could go standby later. The agent overheard my conversation with my ride, she then gave me a seat on an afternoon flight, no standby, and took my luggage. When I arrived in Toronto, my luggage was at the bottom of the escalator- it arrived on an earlier flight. Am unforgettable great experience with Air Canada.
While in Europe, some lovely Canadians warned us about & apologized for Air Canada before our return flight. They were 100% correct - amazing for a non-US corporation to suck so much.
I seriously wish I knew how to market myself like Steve. He’s not only one of the most hilarious comedians I know, he’s brilliant at marketing. Go Steve. You rock!
It’s Canada’s biggest airline that in some places is the only airline to fly In Canada, nobody chooses Air Canada on purpose....... I’ll grudgingly take it if there’s no other choice....(I love west jet to an extent)
sometimes its hard to watch your videos, but i cant help myself from NOT Watching them... I have nightmares about being too drunk at one of your shows, and well... your SO ridiculously polite. i'll do my best to try to see you in a Seattle show! Ive wanted to see you live for a while!
He is a legend who has loyalty, he knew he was wrong, even drunk. That's a good man at heart. And who the f rolls with a crew of 17, a top bloke that's who.
@sshortguy1 c Overbooked our flight as part of our world trip for our honeymoon, the AA flight was a part of a connecting flight (all booked with their partner airline). I was assigned a seat and my wife was told that she was the unlucky one, along with an 18 year old girl) who were going to miss the flight. After a chaotic couple of hours of stressing like crazy and running between (un)help desks she was assigned a seat at the last second as someone agreed to get off the flight, but the abuse we copped from staff while waiting to find out that decision was a bloody joke. Then once we got on the plane the attitude from the attendants was a joke, sat on their phone for most of the flight, rolled their eyes in disgust if we asked for a glass of water etc. Joke of an airline. The 18 year old girl that missed the flight was bawling her eyes out, clearly scared and upset, and missed her 18th birthday celebrations as a result, but the staff didn't give the slightest shit. You never heard of people being screwed over due to overbooked flights in Australia etc because the airlines tend not to run like complete pricks.
When there was a massive fire in our province that destroyed a city , Air Canada raised prices of local flights by like 350 percent out of that city. They literally took advantage of tragedy
How many of us get to say we've been yelled at by a ~70-year-old, toothless baggage handler for Air Canada while doing comedy, professionally, at Yuk Yuk's? Steve truly is living his best life.
This man's blind allegiance to air Canada is a perfect metaphor for so many Americans, whether it be their support to the Govt, their chosen candidate, police, and diabolical corporations/billionaires, etc
Now I am just super curious to hear the 'most bizarre sexual experience' answer. You need to tell us! I can't sleep, I can't eat, I just keep wondering.
Im glad you didn't go all in on Robert. He seemed like a disgruntled employee who mightve just taken the wrong idea about "fuck air Canada" applying to him. Im happy to see you were able to explain, make jokes, yet still display respect for the man. Binged your videos tonight and this is probably my favorite so far! You are the man!
I love how someone who presumably knows robert tried to reel him in and then everyone knew his name. Classic blunder, the Hofstetter already latched onto his prey, this heckler will not see another air canada flight.
Okay, that was not what I expected. Robert actually sounded like a decent but with a little too much drink in his belly, old man. And I was kinda happy that Steve was actually nice to him.
I've been flying west jet for my entire life, took air canada once and spent an hour waiting for my brothers luggage. They never made an announcement so when we went to ask where it was they were like "oh it probably got put on the other plane since we had too much luggage, so it'll be arriving in several hours" and we were like "why didn't you tell us?" And they basically just went "we tried to make an announcement". Turns out the PA system was broken and they just... ignored the fact that they didn't hear their own announcement sitting 10 ft from the speaker. We did manage to get my brothers luggage delivered thanks to the airport.

All of his titles are just “Heckler opens mouth and immediately fucking dies” and it’s amazing
"It will the best commercial WestJet ever had"
No ads
Robert really embodies the spirit of Air Canada
Dude one of my friends is a captain pilot for air Canada u have no clue how much I laughed at this
And you can because what robert doesnt get is that it isnt the pilots fault either.
While in Europe, some lovely Canadians warned us about & apologized for Air Canada before our return flight. They were 100% correct - amazing for a non-US corporation to suck so much.
“That went south quickly” un like your flight back to LA😂
"I got a good pension coming up" Buddy you work for an airline, no you don't.
I seriously wish I knew how to market myself like Steve. He’s not only one of the most hilarious comedians I know, he’s brilliant at marketing. Go Steve. You rock!
I didn’t even know what Air Canada was but I’ll make sure to steer away from it from now on
It’s Canada’s biggest airline that in some places is the only airline to fly In Canada, nobody chooses Air Canada on purpose....... I’ll grudgingly take it if there’s no other choice....(I love west jet to an extent)
gmcnewlook I thought west jet was the biggest.
Is Robert related to Tanner?
sometimes its hard to watch your videos, but i cant help myself from NOT Watching them...
I have nightmares about being too drunk at one of your shows, and well...
your SO ridiculously polite. i'll do my best to try to see you in a Seattle show! Ive wanted to see you live for a while!
when the heckler said "TAKE A FLIGHT" I had to spit out my beer, that was funny
It was hilarious but the poor old man though😂
he was clearly drunk
Nah he was a drunk embarrassment fuck that guy
He is a legend who has loyalty, he knew he was wrong, even drunk. That's a good man at heart. And who the f rolls with a crew of 17, a top bloke that's who.
@@ryandeketenor932 if your idea of a legend is someone who works 33 years at a job that they hate then you and i have way diff definitions of Legend.
@Haywood Giablomi well said.
u were very compose n polite to robert
i kind of wish he was not an older person so we can see u Rip into him
but good on u for keeping it respectful
Kinda ironic that American Airlines is just like that too
Oh man I'd pay for a "Fuck American Airlines" shirt.. Never again.
@sshortguy1 c Overbooked our flight as part of our world trip for our honeymoon, the AA flight was a part of a connecting flight (all booked with their partner airline). I was assigned a seat and my wife was told that she was the unlucky one, along with an 18 year old girl) who were going to miss the flight. After a chaotic couple of hours of stressing like crazy and running between (un)help desks she was assigned a seat at the last second as someone agreed to get off the flight, but the abuse we copped from staff while waiting to find out that decision was a bloody joke. Then once we got on the plane the attitude from the attendants was a joke, sat on their phone for most of the flight, rolled their eyes in disgust if we asked for a glass of water etc. Joke of an airline. The 18 year old girl that missed the flight was bawling her eyes out, clearly scared and upset, and missed her 18th birthday celebrations as a result, but the staff didn't give the slightest shit. You never heard of people being screwed over due to overbooked flights in Australia etc because the airlines tend not to run like complete pricks.
How is that ironic?
Kurly Kayla
IKR! Minus Quebec it should really just be one weird country.
Kurly Kayla Air Canada and American Airlines, use your brain
Love ur videos Steve! They help me laugh when I’m getting my chemo treatments. Much love brother 🤙🤙🤙
I hope your treatment is going/has gone very well and you have no further issues with that total dickwaffle called cancer :)
@@luthianwilliams1622 What Luthian said! Hope that sucker has gone into hiding for good!!
"Siddown, Robert!" 😂
When there was a massive fire in our province that destroyed a city , Air Canada raised prices of local flights by like 350 percent out of that city. They literally took advantage of tragedy
Imagine Robert and Rachel having a conversation
🤣
How many of us get to say we've been yelled at by a ~70-year-old, toothless baggage handler for Air Canada while doing comedy, professionally, at Yuk Yuk's? Steve truly is living his best life.
I really respect Robert. Standing for his company. Admirable. Wrong time, wrong place, wrong company lol...but admirable
This man's blind allegiance to air Canada is a perfect metaphor for so many Americans, whether it be their support to the Govt, their chosen candidate, police, and diabolical corporations/billionaires, etc
He's not American
I've gotta go to a show and heckle I NEED a roasting by steve
I like how a bunch of the other patrons we're like "sit down Robert!" Lmao
I vote for a “ROBERT SIT DOWN” shirt 👕
At 9:38 the man defending air canada starts laughing at the joke about the bags going to Toronto 😂😂😂😂
"ALRIGHT SIT DOWN ROBERT! "
I'll buy that shit.
I’m from Canada. I didn’t even know you were coming
Also fly west jet bro
That was the funniest heckler ever
In the end his last comment was actually a nice addition 😂
All the dislikes are from Air Canada enployees
He sounds like Old Man Jenkins from spongebob lmao
Canadian here. Haven't watched yet. But I'm looking forward to this lol.
Tyler Moreau you couldn’t wait to comment?
Thanks for the laughs Steve. You are just polite enough to keep them going and just a big enough smart ass to keep me watching!
"Sit down Robert!" Sometimes the classics come from out of left field. Too funny. Thanks Steve!
Well... if I ever find myself needing to fly to Canada, it'll clearly be with WestJet.
Come over for a Leafs-Bruins playoff game. With your 25% discount because of the exchange, it might only cost a small fortune.
"Alright, sit down Robert." Wife's had enough.
But has anybody flown Air Canada Rouge. It's a budget Air Canada, hilarious.
A yes, I loved having no leg room for 5 hours even though I'm only 5 feet tall.
Lol, this almost reminds me of the angry Fresno heckler.
It was both funny and sweet, how Roberts friends were trying to calm him down.
Run Steve! Kyle's mom is trying to recruit you for M.A.C.
(hears "Blame Canada" approaching from the distance)
Oh god! They're already here!
this gonna make air canada ceo sweat bullets during shareholder meetings.
Now I am just super curious to hear the 'most bizarre sexual experience' answer. You need to tell us! I can't sleep, I can't eat, I just keep wondering.
New T-Shirt needed with slogan “Robert - sit down”
"I'm about to end this man's whole career"-Steve Hofstetter AKA Supa hot fire
Im glad you didn't go all in on Robert. He seemed like a disgruntled employee who mightve just taken the wrong idea about "fuck air Canada" applying to him. Im happy to see you were able to explain, make jokes, yet still display respect for the man. Binged your videos tonight and this is probably my favorite so far! You are the man!
I love how someone who presumably knows robert tried to reel him in and then everyone knew his name. Classic blunder, the Hofstetter already latched onto his prey, this heckler will not see another air canada flight.
Okay, that was not what I expected. Robert actually sounded like a decent but with a little too much drink in his belly, old man. And I was kinda happy that Steve was actually nice to him.
That's what you get for going to Alberta. Come to ontario again plz I was away last time
Take our oil money and shut the fuck up.
Why does he sound like the "Dey took err jerbs!" guy from South Park?????
I'm dead
I've been flying west jet for my entire life, took air canada once and spent an hour waiting for my brothers luggage. They never made an announcement so when we went to ask where it was they were like "oh it probably got put on the other plane since we had too much luggage, so it'll be arriving in several hours" and we were like "why didn't you tell us?" And they basically just went "we tried to make an announcement". Turns out the PA system was broken and they just... ignored the fact that they didn't hear their own announcement sitting 10 ft from the speaker. We did manage to get my brothers luggage delivered thanks to the airport.
That was serious old man yells at clouds energy
I am Canadian, and I hate Air Canada. Usually I'd rather drive than fly Air Canada.
My brother flew Air Canada once and they lost his suitcase
Gotta respect him for his loyalty even though his company is shitty.
**3 tables of hecklers team up and we run out colors**
You're an absolute Legend Steve
Definitely one of the best commercials WestJet has ever had.
'You actually do not break your back for me, because I never take Air Canada" hahahahaha oh shit.
Steve Hofstetter aka "The Heckler Killer". You are the come back king of comedy.
