That is great to hear... will those extra sections turn in YVR or fly a tag to a third city like 888/889 to JFK?
For your info, this has no F-class. Equipment shows 34D for the moment.
I don't think it tags to JFK noting short turnaround time (arrive 7ish, leave 12ish)

Great to see more midnight flights, hope this will encourage more of the shops/cafes to close later.

A quick look at KVS Schedule yields some very odd data regarding flying times. CX836 takes 10:40 hr, while comparable AC flight and CX838 takes 11:40hr
For the return sector, CX835 takes 15:00 hr, while comparable AC flight takes 14:15 hr and CX839 takes 14:25 hr.
Why is there such a huge discrepancy between the schedules for the new flight and other A343 flights to and from YVR?
