But, the PE fare is still the same as it was on Aug 6 and the cabin is still mostly empty. Even more so on the return date I was looking at.

Hmm...I am booked on 013, but I just realized that it would be one of the few times in AC history that I could do a same day change for free on a direct flight to Narita and take the standard AC001 direct flight instead on the 789.
Pretty sure I won't , but ...

C-FNNQ -mystery solved - but deepens
Many of us wondered what was going to happen when the special AC13 operated YYZ-NRT yesterday.
Flight was operated by C-FNNQ.
After disembarking passengers at NRT aircraft deadheaded down to SIN, dep NRT 14.37, arr SIN 17.31.
Interesting that it flew to SIN rather than QPG!
Flight number for NRT-SIN was AC7178 - which has been used before.
So, when C-FNNQ is available will it return to service in NRT or somewhere closer.
Perhaps the return will be as AC7179, athough that's been used before: QPG-YVR!
Bears watching folks as there might another "bargain" flight on the horizon, but from where to where?

I met an AC pilot on one of my AC Flights back from Asia, who told me he flies AC aircraft to and from SIN for maintenance. Fascinating chat. We were actually returning on an aircraft that had just arrived from maintenance.
Some days I'm lucky and there is cool stuff like this.
