Can anyone explain why why what should have been an Air Canada flight is listed on Flight Aware as an Aeroflot flight from YYZ to YHZ today?

Summit Air which operated the YYZ-YHZ flight doesn’t have an IATA identifier, so I suspect the sites are using SU as filler. Because SU actually belongs to Aeroflot, confusion arises.

AC8133 is irrelevant.

Cool, thanks.

Aeroflot used to fly pax flights to YYZ IIRC? For a second I was wondering if this was a cargo flight to YYZ with a stopover in YHZ!
