I wonder how many places would still allow it to fly, since the engines are too noisy per some regulations? Unless this one is re-engined.'
*EDIT* I see now there an RE withthe pic....does that mean re engined?
I'm happy to see UA (Express) return to YHZ....we're going to have a lot of summer seasonal capacity to NYC (AC and DL via Express are year round) while now UA and AA are summer seasonal.
Jump to postI had a question about the new (ish) international concurse at YUL...on AC's websie it shows the gates as both international and domestic gates (with 3-4 also being US departure gates)....so my question is (and I havent seen this part of YUL in many years)...I seem to remember there being some kind ...
Jump to postI'm just happy if I arrive/depart at an actual gate (jet bridge) in Europe. Bet it wasn't FRA Any time Ive flown to/frim FRA via YUL I've pretty much always gotten a remote stand (can't remember the last time I had a jet bridge, unless I've flown via YYZ) is it a scheduling thing or a cost saving m...
Jump to postJust had a question about the AC Jetz 320s....do they have bulk cargo or containerized cargo? Just curious and wondering if on an off chance they could make some extra $$ by carrying some extra cargo as well. They can all take containers. Some can take both containers and bulk loaded. But, realisti...

I've had the S23 Ultra since June and love it (I'm in Canada) and the camera is one of the best (if not THE best) out there for a phone. I'm into photography as a hobby, so camera was important to me. I guess it really boils down to preference, but I'm an Android fan and have had various Galaxy S ph...
Jump to postFI is restarting YHZ-KEF with 3x weekly flights on the 737-8 next summer: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/icelandair-extends-network-destinations-increased-134600130.html I was thinking about this just a few days ago and wondering if it would come back. I was wishing it would, andhere we are. I've a...
Jump to postA few weeks ago, I was looking at the loads for Air Canada’s YHZ-LHR flight. A route I thought about trying, operating on a 737-800. I noticed that the flight departs YHZ early. I also noticed that it was packed! I have a few questions of interest: 1. Why is this route so packed as a daytime flight...
Jump to postOddly this flight is on my bucket list. One to see that part of Canada, but mainly after years of 747 flying across the Atlantic I have this fascination to do it on a 737. I did JetBlue on a320 to Boston and loved it. It's a cozy flight, but get an aisle if you can't get a prefered seat....it can b...
Jump to postIn flight menu for Y Class : https://akamai-gw.dbaas.aircanada.com/touchless/2023-08-04T05:41/Y_CABIN/868_YHZ_LHR.pdf It looks like a full meal service is served, and a snack is served (a sandwich). I would be curious if it is catered out of YYZ or YHZ though as I cant imagine YHZ really having muc...

Jump to postI just returnd last night from YYC (originating in YEG) and the FAon the YEG-YYC flight said lots of FAs are doing OT as they've been evacuating people and between AC, WJ and some northern carriers they've all been adding extra evac flights.
Jump to postI'm seeing on wikipedia,with no sources, that AC is cancelling the YHZ-YVR route Oct 28....if true, I wonder why? It always seemed popular tome and they even added a 2nd daily seasonal service with a 787 no less. Perhaps the economy is taking its toll and future bookings are affected? Certainly a v...

Jump to postNot sure if this is the right place (sorry! Don't know if it warrants a whole new thread) Is AC ever going to bring back YYZ-HKG, or is it on ice due to closed airspace and needing A/C elsewhere?
Jump to post14J/168Y is pretty leisure focussed, less than 8% of total seats dedicated to premium pax. Lie flats or not, it's effectively the replacement for the Rouge 767s. I know lie flats are contractually not permitted at Rouge, but what I'm getting at is these airplanes are packed tight, not luxury machin...
Jump to postSuch a marvellous way to get to Europe. I hope it is brought back. The 737 which flies YHZ-LHR, originates in YYZ, so it’s a safe connection to make. I notice a handful of people do actually fly YYZ-YHZ-LHR to enjoy a daylight flight. That seems to be very new to me, last year when I flew it (Yhz-L...
Jump to postUnfortunately in mt city, public transport is pretty crappy. We have such a car culture, people moan about relatively recently installed bus lanes. I live in a city that had roughlt 450,000 people ( I think lightly aove) and unless you live in the urban core, you're pretty much FUBARd.
Jump to postI seem to recall seeing pictures (I did a short search of ANET and didn't see them, so maybe it was within trip reports) of LH using other caterers in FRA...I was wondering if this was usual seeing as they own their own? Sorry if this has been discussed.
Jump to postHaving seen the interior on a full fam flight, there isn’t a chance you’d find me in that cabin on a trans con or a leisure flight into Mexico or the Caribbean. Tiny.

Jump to postFrom whom did AC recieve the "Layout 3" 330s from out of curiosity?
Jump to postUp there as one of my favourite planes! Flew both the -200 and -300 many times (in both directions) between YHZ-LHR and YYZ-YUL. Always a comfortable flight whether in J or Y
Jump to postWe at least used to have one here at YHZ but I think they've done away with it (but I'm not 100% sure of that as I haven't flown in over 2 years)
Jump to postNews release by AC yesterday (16/03), looks like they will be increasing and reconnecting some Australia/NZ flying. Sadly missing is MEL. YVR-SYD daily as of 1/05 YVR-BNE 4x as of 01/07 YVR-AKL 3x as of 10/11 https://aircanada.mediaroom.com/2022-03-16-GDay,-Kia-Ora-Air-Canada-Strategically-Expands-...
Jump to postShortest Widebody flight: YYZ-YUL (or reverse) on a variety (A330, T7, 767, 747) usually clocking in a few minutes on either side of an hour, longest narrowbody flight was YVR-YHZ on a MAX8 a little under 6 hrs.
Jump to postThe only one I specifically remember was between LAX-HNL on a UA one but can't remember which version it was, I was fairly young and not quite into aviation at the time as I am now.
Jump to postWhile I thought the book was a bit better, I enjoyed the movie Jurassic Park
Jump to postAs far as I know, nothing. They leave it empty, and I believe even cut out the floor, to reduce weight.
Jump to postCould congestion also play a factor? Perhaps they want to spread some traffic around.
Jump to postI did a search and couldn't really find anything that answered (I apologize if this is something beaten to death or anything, just couldn't find anything that answered this) so my question is this: I notice airlines often leave APUs on even when they are hooked up to ground power and ACs and such (o...
Jump to postI've connected quite a bit through various non-hub airports non-reving. And some small airports at that. I've done things such as YUL-YSJ-YHZ for example...anything to make it home!
Jump to postI was definitely NOT a fan of the 100/200 but found the 700/900 to be fairly comfortable, so I will miss those but not the 100/200s.
Jump to postA a bit of a side note/question (don't know if this necessarily needs its own thread) I remember seeing that LH technically had 747 Combis but any time I ever saw them they were in full PAX config. Did they switch them back and forth? Did they only briefly operate them with cargo on the main deck an...
Jump to postI don't know enough about the containers to say, but I live in Halifax (YHZ) and Korean Air Cargo flies here regularly to pick up lobster, I used to see them all the time either departing or arriving (pretty sure they still fly here during covid)
Jump to postWith current typical passenger loads I doubt the 77W is facing much of a penalty, and can still carry more cargo than the 77L. Sorry, I should've clarified a bit more. They were putting the 77W on the route pre-covid as well...my question was more to then. A 77W does not need to block 100+ seats to...
Jump to postSorry if this is off topic or whatever...but what is the reasoning for putting a 77W with a penalty on YYZ-HKG when the 77L does it likely without?

Jump to postI agree, it is indeed a long shot.
Jump to postThere are some people critical of this move as we need money for health care, teachers, etc. however, while I feel that's true,this could hopefully lead to tourism and that's a huge economic driver here.

I don't quite get the hate. I fly turboprops here on the east coast of Canada fairly often (and occasionally between YTZ-YUL) mainly on 1900s and Q400s, and I really don't find them all that uncomfortable or noisy. (ok, maybe the Beech's can be somewhat uncomfortable)
Jump to postThanks for the report! Nice pics and description. I love going over to Germany (maybe I'm slightly biased, my family is partially from there) and haven't been to Berlin in years... takes me back!
