No offence Al B BUT you praise AC in OZ for developing this route so well and I am just a bit curious why they are selling SYD to LHR for about the same price as a YYZ-HNL would sell for in December? I think they are filling many of the seats for peanuts and frankly they could do better selling some for Canada-HNL at HIGH fares this far out - instead, they will open these flights and sell $400 returns YVR-HNL closer to the date of the flights. Something seems wrong. Also, if they get 80% or better loads SYD-YVR then why not just do this non-stop? (unless of course they don't have capable a/c at present).
