FlyerTalk Forums Expert How-Tos and Guides
Last edit by: jc94
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 , 2015 edition, 2016 edition and 2017 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 as should topics better suited to other forums such as Travel Products for questions about luggage or Travel Photography for discussion about cameras.

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 here 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 took the picture at 8:44pm, made the trek, watched the sunwing guy play the piano, walked back to the MLL, posted the sunwing video, then posted the starting pic....

Here’s a new one. After a 2 hr delay, the pilot says we will be further delayed because the “bridge is stuck to the plane”!

Installed by the same "waste management transport de déchets" company that did the structural concrete of the Big O, no doubt.

Hey @SKYEG, I'm assuming you want something from me? Just got a notification (like from many others) that you tried to PM me.

Yes!

How do you get rid of the "last activity" thing on FT profile?

I believe it's from setting yourself to Invisible Mode, so nobody can see that you're on, and nobody can see when you were last on.

Check the "Use Invisible Mode" checkbox.

(If you can't figure this out with the above steps, then you're on your own!)

I prefer not to take a dump (any time of the day, not just mornings) in front of the duty free shop at YUL, but to each their own, I guess!
