I could see YVR-SIN being a possibility. An AC exec commented about it recently. SQ is thinking of flying to YVR.

In the past 2 months I have consistently (at least twice a day) see advertisements on Instagram stories for direct flights between Singapore and Seattle. Looks like they really want YVR business

You mean with SQ? I've been seeing it on Facebook for months now. I'm not too impressed with the 9 AM or so departure time out of SEA. Ideally there should be an evening departure to SIN.

Whether it's SQ or AC, if they want to do YVR-SIN, I would prefer a very early morning departure time and an evening departure from SIN. That would be amazing. Right now I'm ok connecting in PEK, PVG, TPE, or HKG to SIN.

I wish they brought back YHZ-YQI. Would make visiting my parents a lot easier. Pretty much impossible without significant investment in the YQI airport for runway repairs.

I would vote for SQ on YVR-SIN but then that would be OT and get my post deleted.

So I will pretend that I would prefer AC on this possible future route instead.

I have a lot of dreams for particular EU airports but they will never happen. The above routes strike me as at least a remote possibility.
IAD would make sense as a UA hub.

I’d love to see direct to CHS from ANYWHERE in Canada, but YVR would be amazing.

YHZ-AMS
I predict that WS will fly this one in the next few years.

YHZ-DSS
Not a chance, but it would certainly make travel easier for my family. My sister just did the DSS-BRU-YUL-YHZ run. It was brutal. I've done YHZ-YYZ-CDG-DKR, and it was rather tiring.

Years ago SQ operated YVR-ICN-SIN. I recall being one of seven pax in the forty seat upper deck J cabin. ^

But maybe that’s why it ended.

YVR-SIN or YVR-BKK for sure. I believe it's been mentioned in the Dreamliner thread too, that should definitely be doable...

SQ terminated its flight to YVR about a decade ago during the economic downturn. I think the problem for SQ are the Chinese carriers. With their prices, it might be hard to compete. Are they selling out for their flights to the US?

LAX-YOW. Interestingly, I was on a LAX-YYZ flight a few weeks ago that diverted to YOW due to a ground stop in Toronto. 3 YOW destined pax were extremely frustrated they couldn't get off and had to go back to YYZ, so the demand is definitely more than me. This would be a great 220 route and open up an interesting connection point if YOW-FRA/LHR goes 788.

BUR-YYZ on the 220 would also be excellent.

A number of potential routes come to mind...

YYZ-CPT (or JNB) on the B789
YYT-YYC on the A223
YYT-YVR on the A223 (longshot I know)
YYT-YAY on the DH1 (or BEH via EVAS)
YYT-TPA on any Rouge aircraft
YYT-MCO on any Rouge aircraft
