Boarding was not organized by zone - rather a free for all... AC promoted complimentary drinks but did ONLY one drink service on the 5 hour flight. In addition the one steward did not know they offered Heineken Zero even though it was announced before the service began, and is clear on the can label. I booked a window seat that promised a window - NOPE! I had to crank my neck to get a wee glimpse - the seat behind me had much more to view. And of course the seats are too close together. The audio was much better than the WestJet flight I had earlier - could get through the movie no problem.
The plane was very cramped to point there was no way not to touch person beside you and a stewardess screamed at my son when I touched her arm to get her attention to let her know she forgot to give him his dinner when she passed him and gave a dinner to passenger behind him. Very inappropriate response and She never came back to apologize and other stewardess said she was sorry “if I felt” she was inappropriate. Horrible experience and she should be reprimanded for her behavior
The seat design in the premium economy section leaves virtually no room under the seat to store a bag or purse. Other than that, it was a great flight. Arrived early.
By modern air travel standards, our 15-hour flight to Delhi was very nice. Quiet-ish, straightforward, good service, okay seats, etc. All good.
Our aircraft arrived late into Tokyo from Vancouver, so departure was delayed slightly for cabin cleaning and preparation. After boarding the full flight, we experienced an additional delay due to de-icing, which was an unexpected but necessary step. The pilot advised that the first two hours would likely include light to moderate turbulence, which proved accurate. As a result, cabin service was understandably delayed. This isn’t a complaint — simply a summary of the circumstances. Once we passed through the rough patch, the remainder of the flight was smooth, our pre ordered vegan meals were good and we arrived in YVR close to the expected time. Kudos to the crew for working professionally and diligently throughout the situation. Will fly again long haul with Air Canada.
I liked all of it, and excited to do it again~* Thank you, and Much LoVe and Respect, CHRiS aka KRYSTOE 👣🎵 http://www.chrisrousemusic.bandcamp.com Google = chrisrousemusic and/or KRYSTOE
It was a very small plane and was ok. No food or entertainment so there should be an option for NA.
I travelled in Business class for the first time and wish I could do that again.
Don’t book a middle or window seat the leg room was very tight and very difficult to exit your seat. I was sitting in a window seat. I’m not a large person. I booked economy plus for the extra room. There was no extra room for the additional cost to the flight.
It was horrible experience, as my flight was delayed over 5 hours. There was no compensation provided. They wasted my whole day.
