There are no Executive First Suites and no AVOD. That has been discussed ad nauseam by the in-house experts. It's not a planned conspiracy against the West. YYZ & YUL will have their turn this summer as the 3 amigos fly to ATH, BCN & DUB. In the absence of PTV's and mood lighting, I'll still be welcoming you with open arms.
For marketing and catering purposes, the flight in question (YVR-VRA) is considered domestic North American product and not International. The meal levels are the same as you would find on comparable YYZ-UVF or YUL-BGI flights - no amenity kits provided for all of the above. The prevalence of burnt out lights or unserviceable tray tables are no more common on these aircraft than on any other. When appraised, we log deficient items, and they get fixed during the next station stop.
I have flown on 2 of the 3 aircraft this winter, and have not found them to be dirty, damaged or dilapidated, while under the realization that they are not the crown jewels of the fleet.
