TRIP REPORT | Air Canada Express - E175 - Toronto (YYZ) to New York (LGA) | Economy

Canada's largest airline, Air Canada, competes with American Eagle & WestJet on the busiest air-route from the US to Canada. Air Canada sends both mainline & regional aircraft on this route.
The Air Canada Express E175 offers a standard onboard experience, but I'd choose it over the A320 any day because even though the seat itself is almost identical, the E175's cabin configuration is only 2-2, unlike the A320's 3-3. This gives passengers more space and gets rid of middle seats.

I was the Incharge FA on this flight! Thank you so much for flying with Sierra and I. I remember how nice and understanding you were. We miss being on busy LGA flights :(

[@QFSAviation]

Oh hey thanks a lot for watching! You two did a great job, I appreciate it. Hopefully we’ll all be back in the skies soon 😊✈️

[@nymota2992]

@@QFSAviation his video is so beautiful loved all the images and the information. One day I will fly the Embraer -170/175, they are so cute. I have only flown E-190/195 by Jet Blue and Azul in Brazil.

[@shyzo1438]

I’ve worked for Air Canada in YYZ for almost 10 years. I was lucky enough to work in a few departments during that time. I miss being at work, being in the terminal, seeing the passengers and my fellow colleagues. Like many others, I have been off work due to COVID-19, and miss being at work a lot. Thanks for this detailed video. Being able to see the aircrafts, the gates, the terminal, the ramp etc brings back so many wonderful memories and makes me smile. I miss days like the one in this video, bad weather with flight delays. Those days were stressful, but at times the most fun because everyone worked together as one team, using our combined strengths to get each flight in/out safely. I miss my Air Canada family so much. Hopefully we all see each other soon, with better days ahead.

I agree. I miss flying so much and the steady CYYZ Traffic

[@Satoshi9801]

For whatever reason, I find it so satisfying watching an airplane take off at night when there's snow on the ground. Maybe it's the contrast. Those who live in areas with snow might not share my sentiment. --- As others have stated, I prefer your air experience channel over some of the others, because you don't fly an upper class all the time. Thus it speaks more to average folk like me.

[@GenkisTravels]

Awesome trip report like always. Love that NY view.

[@QFSAviation]

Thanks! You can’t beat the landing views in the big apple 🍎

[@alihammoud9284]

I can easily say your trip reports are the best out here. Hopefully this virus will ease in the upcoming months. Can’t wait to fly again !

[@octoberfalls6179]

I really enjoyed this trip report especially the falling snow section at Toronto airport, I love a bit of snowy weather me, thanks again for another trip report, you did a fantastic job as always.

[@jazzyjazz3014]

All the people! I miss this so much.

[@alberttseng5453]

I was really surprised to find that Air Canada Express would offer food on 1hr flights. I usually take Air Canada's long haul flights which the service is really good. I didn't expect this service on regional flights

[@shortszaid5819]

Nice trip hope u enjoy it air canada is my best airline

[@piaflyingflowers9834]

Upload a video about PIA

[@Unuthryear]

Since you have done 3/4 AC reviews, in past week yes we do understand AC has an old IFE system. Since it is offered on all aircraft except for few smaller regional jets, it would be a huge expense to upgrade.

[@cohenj4037]

they have a old ife system only on select aircraft they’re newer aircraft have their new ife and the aircraft which still have the old cabin and ife are being retrofitted which will take a long time.

[@ice711real]

Awesome trip report, and rest in peace to all those in today's PIA Pakistan flight that did not make it

[@Bobrogers99]

For just an hour flight you don't need much. The seat pitch was adequate and the snack/drink service was more that one might expect because of the turbulence. If the IFE was dated and slow, you would have time to watch much anyhow. No disappointments on this one!

[@jasminejohnston6393]

...or it could’ve been this plane. It definitely looks familiar and the plane I flew in DID have an IFE system which the Dash-8s don’t have

[@craigwillis3372]

Not much of a view on take off !! But great views coming into NYC !! Thanks as always Q for another great trip report!! Well done as always !!

[@sathishpandian187]

So Air Canada & Star Alliance are into together now , is that why the crafts are repainted ??

[@khpn]

Excellent quality video but how do I stop the unnecessary music that seems to permeate all aviation videos nowadays.

[@sathishpandian187]

A great video from ur fan from Down south India .... And what was that app you had on ur mobile for aircraft tracking ?? Lemme know

[@dflack8538]

What app were you using

Lol O&A! 👍

[@QFSAviation]

I hope they can out their differences aside and start up a show again

[@QFSAviation]

Great point. I’m halfway through Permanently Suspended, and it’s basically like u said Ant trashing Opie. They had great chemistry together and with Jim on the third mic. The comedians they had on the show like Louie and Burr really helped out. Also Anthony is in deep shit on Reddit from the pests. I’ll give that show you recommended a listen for sure! Oh also, Opie wants to do a vlog/podcast with me on a seaplane since we live near each other, so that should be cool! Nice to see that someone actually recognized the show 🤘

[@lucaswald8905]

Out of the 3 Air Canada E175 trip reports I have watched, all of the aircrafts were built Pre 2010. These are aging, will they get more or will they start using A220s?

[@michellevesque2130]

I think they are for different routes....The E175 has about a 76 passenger capacity and the A220 just about double that ?

Nice video. Thanks for showing the office. It's been awhile since I've flown one. I remember that night, it was quite snowy.

[@LiamWalsheliamskitchen]

This plane is one of the most comfortable out there. If flying economy, seat 12A is the best by far. If I had a choice between 12A on this plane or business class on the A319/320/321, I would go for 12A on this plane

[@kyotokid4]

...I like the Embraer 175s and 190s, more of a "real" airliner than other RJs. which remind me of bizjets on steroids (without the bizjet amenities). Looking forward to getting on a A 220 (Bombardier C Series) when travel restrictions are finally eased as I've read and heard goo things about it.

[@mjfusion5482]

I flew the same route (Toronto Pearson to New York LaGuardia), but it was with regular Air Canada and I think it was in an Airbus A320

[@benz516]

I wish they would've taken the black from the tail down to the bottom like the Rouge livery. Also red engines would've been cool

Loved The Trip Report! I love LaGuardia and it’s amazing approach!

[@SarabooMendeezl]

Captain Contractor and First Officer Duncan are amazing pilots!!

[@andrewwilliams2193]

I once had to fly to Washington D.C. during a blizzard. My flight was on Northwest airlines, but it was canceled and they put me on a Delta flight (looked like a really small DC9 or MD80) to Atlanta and then had to get a connecting flight to D.C. When I arrived, my bag was never transferred to the Delta flight, but it arrived the next day. Lesson learned, always pack an emergency change of clothing in your backpack in events like this. After this I prefer not to fly in the middle of winter.

[@MileHigh_Aviation]

Awesome trip report!!

I really like the old Blue-grey livery. I hate the new one looks like the very old 1990 livery but with raccoon eyes
