FlyerTalk Forums Expert How-Tos and Guides
Last edit by: tcook052
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 previous versions are the
original 2004 - 2014 thread
and the 2015 edition

The 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 hotels or airlines and/or their 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'm finally going through my EYW trip, adding everything to Flight Diary.

It's amazing how many of these flights I specifically remember.

Though I just found a 14C (on a Q400) that I, for the life of me, cannot remember why I sat there. When bulkheads were unavailable, we usually got 2AC.

Last minute flight swap? This weekend I sat in the back-back really back row (like, literally, the toilet was beside me) because I had to make a last minute change to an earlier flight (20min before scheduled boarding time)

But I remember all the IRROPS. I know when I sat in 33A on a 320.

I know when I sat in 13C on a E75.

But this one I have no recollection.

Oh dear, errrr only other thing I can think of is did you "medicate" yourself too much during EYW? If I tried to pull off even 1/10th of what you did, I would have to request a Flyertalk name change to DrunkerCargo or something

Just finished reading your trip blog. Glad you safely made it back

You, with your words like knives
And swords and weapons that you use against me
You, have knocked me off my feet again,
Got me feeling like a nothing
You, with your voice like nails
On a chalk board, calling me out when I'm wounded
You, picking on the weaker man

You can take me down
With just one single blow
But you don't know what you don't know

Someday I'll be living in a big old city
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?

'Cause Peever's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only one who's got enough of me to break my heart
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do
He's the time taken up, but there's never enough
And he's all that I need to fall into.

Peever looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see.

Drop everything now
Meet me in the pouring rain
Over on the sidewalk
Take away the pain
'Cause I see, sparks fly, whenever you smile

Get me with those brown eyes, yyznomad
As the lights go down
Gimme something that'll haunt me whenever you're not around
'Cause I see, sparks fly, when you smile
