AC1700 on 15 Jan - rolling delay, currently 3hr 40mins delay. Let's see what the final dep time will be. Reason is 'operational delay'.
Can someone please look up the delay reasons? Want to see if I am entitled to compensation.
Delay is now 6hrs and the reason has changed from the generic operational issues to weather related due to incoming flight.
Some of my team has their flight canceled from LAS to YYZ a few days back too.

Edit: And now the flight is cancelled. What a .... show. 2 hr delay, 3 hr delay, 4 hr delay, 5 hr delay, 6 hr delay and then cancel. Could have gone out on the WestJet flight and now no direct option till the red eye.
