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.

A couple of awkward bounces for the C that night. Not Rittich's best night.

Welcome back....

Rittich played pretty good, not much chance on the goals.

Thanks. Seems like I haven't missed much here in the last month or so.

I'm sure not much has changed in the 15 years you have been on FT. Happy belated FT anniversary Felicia!

Thanks for the anniversary well-wishes.

As for the last 15 years here, yes, much has changed but I'll end my commentary there.

Odd sentiment. I quite liked it.

I'm guessing that the Leaf's lost in OT? At least they are still very likely to make the playoffs this year. They can save their real choking for the first round.

Yes, odd sentiment indeed. I guess we were even lucky to not lose in regulation.

Yep, the lost in OT. And yes they'll make the playoffs, unless they go on some 18-wheeler-off-the-cliff-style slump like in the previous decade(s),

They can save their real choking for the first round.
Annoying but I can't disagree.

Would anyone be interested in a YUL do on Friday May 17 or Saturday May 18? I need to book some flights, and I'm trying to decide if I should stay the weekend or just head right back to SFO.
