Higher
air fares

By MARILYN RONALD

OTTAWA (CP) — Higher air fares
may show up within weeks as-a result
of Pacific Western Airlines’ proposed
takeover of Wardair, with the busi
ness traveller being: hit hardest, say
some observers.

William Jordan,-an economics pro-
fessor at York University, said higher
fares may be evident by April

“That would, be the obvious time
to do it, when summer fare schedules
are announced,"’ he **Wardair
is still advertising low fares. As soon
as the time period on those ads
expires, fares will increase.”

Jordan said he has been contacted
for his views by the federal Bureau of
Competition Policy, which will review
the sale of Wardair to PWA Cotp.

He said it's too difficult to_predict
but the air

“On routes where they (Canadian
