August 12th: My brother and I were left early to drive to the airport parking area for parked the SUV and took a shuttle van to the airport. We made on-time and go to Air Canada check-in counter. After the check-in, there were long lines in the security checkpoint. We cleared and made a long walk to the gate. We skipped Starbucks because it was long lines there. We made at the gate and waiting board the aircraft. This flight was upgraded to A320 from E190. We flew E190 last year ago it was ok. I settled my seat and near to business class seats.

We arrived from Seattle and connection flight to Milan, Italy on 5 hours layover. I went to passport control after a longest walk from the US terminal to Int’l terminal. We cleared and eat fusion dish with sushi from the food court. After 5 hours layover, we boarded the new B787-9 Dreamliner, which only 6 months old. The route was replaced from old A330-300. I sat on my seat and delayed due to waiting the passengers from the other flights. After an hour delayed, the plane begun pushback. There were few empty seats in the back. My brother and I played game on the seatback TV screen. The plane took off from YYZ and 7-hours route to Milan/MXP. I watched one movie and ate dinner. I made a long sleep until reach the French Alps. Breakfast was quite small only a banana bread. The Dreamliner descending for land in the Milan airport. Made a smooth touchdown and taxi to the gate. We arrived in the afternoon due to delayed. We cleared the passport area, picked up the luggage and took a taxi to the Lake Como. Overall flight and the services were good.
