I would have said "I doubt it," but WestJet's April Fools video has certainly stopped everyone here from getting on with their day...have a look. The scary part is...you could almost imagine it happening. 'Nuff said: And if that's not enough, here's...

Canadian airline, Westjet, has made some clever YouTube clips over the years, some of which we've featured on TravelGumbo.  This might be one of their better efforts.
