Jazz flies into lots of uncontrolled airports.
AC as well. YYJ between 00:00-6:00
YZF overnight hours.
YMM?
YXY, when mainline flies there, overnight hours
YYG 24 hours uncontrolled.
etc.

P.S. :)

Yes but AC has made the decision not to operate into YWG or YLW when the tower is closed. Not sure about YTZ and Jazz

I would sit on the 'visitor' side of the desk for optimal plane viewing. My boss asked me a few times not to do that. I politely informed him that this seating configuration was conditional to me remaining employed there.

Not sure if this is the right thread for it... but AC154 is not showing up properly on AC's website.

It's supposed to depart on November 2 at 0040 but showing as "Flight status not available" by default on the app, if you go search it manually, it shows up as departing at 23:40 -1 (November 1st)

I haven't received any notifications about my flight departing an hour early beside getting MAX'd and my seat was re-assigned.
Can't tell if it's a glitch or a schedule change.


Edit: Probably wrong thread, I've just realised it's more than 48 hrs away, I will probably get a notification at t-48 hrs...

On Expert Flyer it shows as you are expecting it:

AC
154 0 YYC 02/11/25 12:40 AM YYZ 02/11/25 5:38 AM 7M8 Su 88% / 28m
J3 C3 D0 Z0 P0 R0 Y9 B9 M9 U9 H9 Q9 V0 etc

I'll bet the timing is messed up because of the switch to wintertime schedules which should happen at 02:00 ET on Nov 2nd... when you are in the air.

That would explain the 1 hour difference... so it could be just a typical AC IT glitch.
It's not that difficult to interpret... flights are operated/timed by UTC, it departs on 2nd November 00:40 MDT(UTC -6/ 0640UTC) and arrive at 05:38 EST (UTC -5 / 1030 UTC) with a block time of 3 hrs 58 mins, it's no different than flying across any time zones.

AC91 cancelled Monday 10/27 in GRU. Mechanical delays reached nearly 4 hours past departure time and the crew timed out.

AC91 originates in EZE, though a different aircraft operates the second segment)

Thru passengers like myself (along with any other Americans or Canadians who didn't already have a Brazil visa which takes 3-5 days) were not allowed to leave the airport secure area. A makeup flight # left 24 hours later.

Forget the rockstar treatment-- I felt like I got the Tom Hanks treatment,. without the cart deposit quarters or the Hugo Boss store.

Brazil has amazing consumer protection laws on airline delays / even cancellations. Valid for airlines originating, ending, or connecting through Brazil. Wish me luck!

AC224 for IRROP’d due to a mechanical issue on board.

luckily got into 226 so I’ll be able to make it to the YYC Do in time

Reason for diversion
 
Is there any way to know the reason for diversion of AC72 to Terceira Island enroute to Casablanca Nov 4?

TheCanuckian Nov 7, 2025 7:55 am

So help me figure this one out.

I woke up this morning to find that AC 782 from LAX-YYZ has a 6.5-hour delay. Instead of a 7:45 AM departure it’s now 2:15 PM. The aircraft is C-GJWD.

The reason given is “a mechanical issue on an earlier flight caused the scheduled aircraft to arrive late.” Yet the flight arrived last night from YYZ just 15 minutes late—at 19:42 PM.

However, FlightRadar shows it departing LAX for SJC last night at 10:57 PM as AC 7017. As far as I can tell, it’s still at SJC.

So I guess the mechanical issue was bad enough that it necessitates a 6.5-hour mechanical delay (which, of course, is not compensated) but not so bad that it can’t fly to SJC?

These type of flights happen all the time because of mechanical issues. Air Canada most famous mechanical flight would have been the Gimli Glider.

Not get overly pedantic, but I beleive that C-GAUN had no mechanical issues preventing it from operating and was as such up until it ran out of fuel. So techncially not a mecanical issue...

I guess I'm wondering how a plane can be too broken to fly to YYZ but not too broken to fly to SJC. Or how it can need 6.5 hours of delay due to arriving 15 minutes late. Etc. It doesn't add up.

Yes, but I was thinking about the flight from Gimli to Winnipeg, where the aircraft was basically held together by duck tape.
