While tracking another flight on Flight Aware, I noticed something quite unusual: a Transat flight direct YUL to Rio de Janeiro. On 03Jan12 TS also has a YYZ-GIG flight. Nothing on the TS web site.

Is this a special charter, ferry flight? Anybody with some insight?

Cheers,

YUL -10C, with windchill -17C
GIG +24C, with humidity +31C

*sigh* :)

And today an A310-300 is enroute YYZ-GIG. Does the 310 even have the legs to fly pull pax (remember 249 with TS) for 10h?

My guess, a little paint job and maybe cabin mods as touted recently.

Air Transat sends their A310 to GIG for maintenance at TAP/ME.

Ah. Obrigado, C010T3. I guess the same for the A333, at one point in time the engine mtce was done by AC in YUL perhaps not the airframe.

Cheers, and I'll wave the next time I'm in GIG!
