More schedule juggling for XLRs. I do expect some more*.
YUL-YVR down to 2 days in September.

Moderator note: a number of posts about Doug Ford's plan to take over and expand YTZ have been moved to a new thread in the Canada forum, which is the appropriate venue for discussion of general Canadian airport issues, news, etc.

A few weeks ago I saw on another forum a post referencing a Japanese news article which hints to YYZ-KIX becoming year-round. Not sure how accurate that is, but I'd be surprised if YVR-KIX is not also going year-round if YYZ is.

The CTS-YVR route is not timed well for me to sleep, so I am bit wary to book that

That would be great news if it does happen.

It's behind a paywall but the blurb at the top mentions it: https://www.nikkei.com/article/DGXZQ...6A210C2000000/
