This new annual thread has been carved out of the previous thread in an effort to reduce the number of megathreads on the AC forum. For those interested the original 2004 - 2014 thread on the topic may be found here.
That original thread started by accident but quickly became a popular place to come and discuss off topic things such as hockey, new movies, or almost anything that wouldn't fit into existing AC forum threads. More Air Canada or Aeroplan topics such as flight feedback, in-flight services issues or mileage earning/redemption are all topics that should go into existing AC forum threads so others can benefit from this information. Topics about other airline/hotel loyalty programs should be posted elsewhere on FT.
While the conversation is more relaxed as it would be in a lounge that doesn't mean however that the FT rules don't apply her as they definitely do so please refrain from controversial topics such as politics or religion, avoid profanities and treat other lounge patrons with the same respect you expect.

I despise TXL.
Any takers on when BER will actually open for commercial flights? 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, or 3000?

Two things to try:
1) Foie gras burger. OMG OMG OMG
2) Bubble tea. I won't ruin it for you, but it will give you a tremendous mind orgasm and it will be the best and coolest drink you have in your life.
I won't ruin the surprise but OMG OMG

The restaurant across the road from the Prince De Galles hotel is something else too. Reasonable, one michelin star restaurant, one of the best I've been to - I enjoyed that more than that posh and stuck up 3 michelin star Alain Ducasse one (I can't remember which one, but it was in a hotel)
Breakfast at the Prince De Galles hotel is quite a treat though!
The Chinese restaurant at the Shangri La was pretty good, although i'm not sure if that's because I was sick of French food after a week...lol. Seriously overpriced though
