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 tried to buy some clothes at Œä“aê malls.
I'm a 34 here (pant size), but for some reason, the size 38 pants at Levis just wouldn't go past my thighs -_-
I do have a pretty big but, I won't lie, but still. From 34 to 38?
Only bought stuff at the Adidas store.
Also, are the E90s hotter these days?
2/2 flights started REALLY hot. Like boiling.
I told the FA on each flight that it was boiling and he/she said you're right while wiping sweat off their face
. It was fine after though.

When was it too hot? Boarding? In flight? The dial should be cranked all the way to the left for it to be comfy. If she doesn't comply, see if you can do it

During the climb phase, IIRC, the amount of air pushed out through the HVAC system is decreased due to the climb thrust setting.
That's odd though, once you're at least up there for a few minutes (at cruise) things should normalize out. I've never had this, and I like lived on E90s for a while.
Were the vents blowing out cold air at all? Or was it warm/hot?

I am 100% sure it was "abnormally" hot because even the FA/SD were like double you the f.
Anyway, it got fixed right after every time, but I was curious as to maybe there is a reason as to why it is so.
Fairly certain the vents were blowing hot air.

I don't know, the only time I've been told I need the red tag, they just tagged both my bags without even checking (to be fair, they were small).
I've never had a red tag on my roller, and I've never had a problem boarding with it.
And I don't even have the SE tag on it any more

Gahh. Following in the footsteps of our friend Nomad, here's my rant.
I hate travel. I hate it!!!
Gahh. I want to be at home right now.
Upside? Meeting a few other FTers in a few hours. Yay!!

Thank you very much again to the YVR Do organizers. (the most recent one)
I finally got my Zone 1 cup and the shirt. It's been rough waiting for them, but there are so many stories about getting that comment that I won't get into here
But thanks again. And thanks to a certain good friend FTer on here to remember to grab it and give it to me tonight.
To the FTers who I had the pleasure of having dinner with tonight, it was great to catch up!
//secret private super cool Micro Do?

I never said that I hate travel. I said that I hate people when I travel
