When to expect a hot meal and a quick snack?
I usually do evening flights but I'm not sure when to expect a hot meal and when to expect some quick snack.
Here are a few examples:
AC8576 YVR/YXE CRA 20:50 snack
AC8575 YXE/YVR CRA 18:30 meal
AC255 YEG/YVR 320 21:35 snack
AC1119 YYZ/YXE 22:15 320 hot meal (I'm on it with Gogo wifi)
Any pattern? Main line vs express? Air craft?
Thank you in advance

My understanding is that there is no oven on a CRJ .

The CRA does not have an oven. The E75 and every mainline aircraft does.
So that explains the hot/cold difference.
The rest is based on flight time. 2+ hours on mainline always gets you a hot meal.
Breakfast hours on everything other than YYZ-YOW (I think?) with an oven gets you a hot omelette.

Good point yyz_atc_qq, and thank you superangrypenguin for confirming, and Canadiancow for the details.
YVR/YXE and YVR/YEG are both less than 2 hours, YYZ/YXE are over 2... That explains it.
There is no J class on CRJ, 10 J on CRA but no oven.
However the cold breakfast I had on CRA was amazingly tasty. (May be I was too hungry?
) It was cranberry flatbread with swiss cheese and turkey cold cut I think? Have you tried lespoir?
