I just flew 936 from Brussels to Montreal.

Some observations. Firstly, the 330 is no longer the odd one out or the comfortable plane to fly. It's as bad as anything.

PY is just domestic A320 J. Unlike the rest of AC fleets PY, which is a comparable similar product to domestic J, the PY is exactly the same seat and material (with the same entertainment system. I suspect that decision was made to save costs on an expensive entertainment system overhaul, the A320 seat provided an easy and available option at minimal cost).

By the way, the flight was running very late (1h40). Before we boarded the agents said something like this "Because of the late running of the service, we're going to board from the back forwards, we now invite passengers in zones 4 and 5 to come forward for pre-boarding".

I laughed pretty hard and wondered what the flyertalk crowd would make of that. I'm assuming it's not company policy
