@Wingin' It! Paul Lucas Hi Paul from Grimsby, Ontario Canada. I've been a subscriber to your KZbin channel for about a year now. I really enjoy watching your videos. I have 2 chronic lower back pain conditions, Lumbar Spinal Stenosis and Degenerative Disc Disease and Osteoarthritis in both of my knees and in my hips. I can't sleep most nights because of my chronic pain so I binge watch your videos. Binge watching your videos helps me get through the sleepless nights and helps me forget about my pain. Thank you for making your videos, I really appreciate it.

I agree with you regarding the zone/group check-in mentality of some airlines. I'm a regular traveller on BA and I know by having a cheaper fare, I'll be the last to board and have the greatest risk of not having any overhead luggage storage space. What ever happened to the good old days? - rear rows board first, forward rows board last. Another great video by the way.

My aircrafts were 788‘s and 320‘s and I must say that those 4 flights were absolutely marvelous! Nothing negative to say about my flights on AC and I’m really looking forward to book another trip with them!

Another winner of a video, Paul. I've flown Air Canada several times on business class in recent years, to Hong Kong, Taipei and London, all in 787-9s and they've all been exactly as you described. Generally, Air Canada seems to be the airline that Canadians love to hate if you look at reader comment sections in the online press. But my experiences have largely been good, especially when there have been no hitches. A couple of times in the distant past, when I I've had problems with damaged luggage and cancelled flights, I've found Air Canada to be quite difficult to deal with. But, in recent years, I've had no issues and service has been superlative. Cathay Pacific are very keen competitors though, on trans=Pacific routes. I'm an ex-pat living in Vancouver for the last 40 odd years. If you have the time, look me up when you do your return trip to Frankfurt in October and I'd be happy to show you around this wonderful city. Cheers Paul!

As someone who flies both Star Alliance and SkyTeam I’m going to give AC a try sometime. In regards to the airplane food I’m one who thinks in the past 3-4 years all classes of flying has had tremendous improvements in the quality of food, but it’s my stance from flying United, Delta, British Airways, and Lufthansa. Just looking forward to flying United Polaris (Still BusinessFirst) to Tokyo in 2 weeks! Flown first quite a bit, but this will be my first international business class flight as it’s for a 36 day study trip!

Ads a Canadian I'm glad you enjoyed your AC journey. I did a pile of flying from the 1980s to the early 21st century - mainly for business - so a mix of economy and business. Started out on CP Air which was regrettably assumed by AC. At one time I was an "Elite" AC frequent flyer. Over the past decade and a half lots of personal travel so economy. Our experience of AC, in the latter phase, has been rarely good and mostly mediocre or poor. The last trip, FRA-YYZ, in 2019-12 was rotten - an old 777 which was cramped, poor service, and really bed meals. It didn't help my daughter had just got off SQ! Thanks for the good KZbins which I'm mostly interested in trains - favourites BTW are the Amtraks west of Chicago and the Indian-Pacific and Ghan. Stay well.

I really don't understand why Canadians "HATE" on Air Canada Service. The FA's are really good and the service is excellent. My worst air travel ever was on a Air Canada Rouge flight from Athens to Toronto. The 767 was really old as are most Rouge planes and all luggage was not put on the flight, again its Air Canada using old aircraft on the Rouge system. The FA's know the drill and make the most of it even though the passengers blame them for some reason. Having flown numerous airlines the 2 that really stand out are Aegean and Air Canada. Paul, I love your channel. keep up the good work. Cheers Mate!!

I have flown this a few times over the years and always the same.

Paul, I see you flew on flight AC841. The first time I flew to Canada in 1992 was with Air Canada on a 747-100 from Glasgow to Toronto and return. The outbound service from Glasgow was AC842, however the return from Toronto was this flight number, AC841!!!!

Yes, you should come to Montreal. Our airport is not the greatest but it is a nice city. And, when the pandemic is over, you could fly Montreal to Toronto via Porter or take the train to Toronto with ViaRail (or to New York with Amtrak)

Thought you and your readers might find this amusing. I live in Sydney but originally from Sth Wales. Recently my 93 yo mother wanted to come out to see her Oz family and particularly Great Grandchildren. We realised she could fly on Qatar Cardiff - Doha -Syd easily, as CWL is only 10 mins from her home. Got my sister in Wales to arrange flight, and as Mum hadn’t flown for well over 30 years and ‘getting on a bit’ we flew her Business Class. When my sister sent me the flight details, I noticed Mum had requested vegetarian meals. This was a surprise to me as I never knew she was a veggie! I rang her, and asked why she had requested this. “Well, when I use to fly with your father, he always said it was a good idea to request vegetarian, as then you got served first! “ Nevertheless, she had a great trip, and even indulged in non-veg food.

18 and my first flight was on the new AC Jumbo jet to Heathrow. As I stepped outside the Heathrow exit, 2 CID agents took me by my arms and guided me up a ramp into the back of a big black van sitting just outside the exit. They closed the doors with me inside.
