AC loves YEG - just look at all the R space!

Looks like a fair bit of space on both, with the YEG-LHR being on a 763 and the YYC-LHR being on a 772, so a pretty significant difference in aircraft size.

I do see that the YEG-LHR for Sunday (tomorrow) is J9R5, while the YYC-LHR is J9R0. Looks like AC is showing YEG some love by being more generous with R space ;-)
