you bring up a good point.
CDG-EWR is 3640 miles.
CDG-IAD is 3850 miles.

so with a range of 4400 miles, I have a feeling like you said during the winter there will be ALOT of 1 stops into YYR.

and definitly no chance of the 753 on the route

yeah lets see how happy those govt people are with a stopover
