YUL-YYC on a 767?

Just got home on flight 155, thought it was kind of weird because it was on a 767 and not the usual airbus? J was half empty, as was the rest of the plane. Comfortable though!

Yes, upguage on this route started today and will last until 01SEP.

(Going by memory here) The 767 will be on 155 on YUL-YYC on Thu-Mon. Some days on weekends will have 2 767s going westbound.

For Eastbound, only the morning flight on Sat & Sun will be 767.

The extra 767 turns around and go to YYZ.

Thanks for the info Empress. Another cool thing, it let me choose a bulkhead seat on the express check in today as well, first time I have seen that also.

That's another glitch with the kiosks and will soon be fixed by AC's IT third party consultant (by late 2004).

I think AC is trying to flood the YYC-YUL market with extra seats as Westjet and Jetsgo just entered this market a few months ago. They're loading so much L, N seats to these flights that Jetsgo and Westjet could really charge fares above the lowest catagories.

A 767 was used for this route last summer so take it how you like.
