Air Canada bought Canadian Airlines in 1999 with it becoming a subsidiary on December 23, 1999. Some Canadian aircraft needing major maintenance were painted in this cross over color scheme in 2000. Air Canada took the year to re-structure Canadian Airlines' debt before merging the two carriers in 2001. Excess aircraft were disposed of after the merger and full Air Canada colors were applied to the rest of the fleet.
