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 , 2015 edition, 2016 edition , 2017 edition and 2018 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. Air Canada or Aeroplan topics such as flight feedback, in-flight services issues, status 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, destinations, in-flight travel tech. or anything best discussed elsewhere on FT may be relocated to that forum as this thread isn't meant to import travel topics to this forum that are better discussed on other forums. FT is an amazingly diverse and large community so members are encouraged to seek out all of its resources.

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 will pointedly avoid AC/AE (or indeed any airline) talk but I do want to ask this...

What the **** was I thinking routing myself through ORD in February?

I marvel at my stupidity most days. The other days I’m annoyed by it.

It's always sunny in White Rock.

Well, almost always.

Streamlining your business architecture for maximum value output
Is that even a thing?

I know of a few western Canadian ski resorts that could desperately use all that snow!

1299 cancelled, so I am "stuck" in TPA. Gives me a bit more time to recover from the buffet that @jasdou and I were at last night before the Flames vs Lightning. Lobster, crab, oysters, shrimp, sushi, turkey, roast tenderloin and a liquid nitrogen ice cream station. Dessert station was incredible! @24left was drooling over the food pics....

LOL - I barely had any breakfast this morning, I was still stuffed from that dinner. It is too bad I am in PBI tonight, otherwise we could have done an encore!

@Yhztraveller and @jasdou

Such teases you are but I'm so happy you guys had an awesome time. Based on some of the photos, not sure if the main event was the game or the food.

Thanks for sharing!
