I was surprised to see a 787 landing at YEG last evening, while driving home from the mountains. It was AC171 from YYZ and it looks like there are a few more wide bodies on the route in the coming future. Hopefully these were full and gets Air Canada's attention for improved connectivity abroad.

That would be nice. The same flight # is a 321 the day afterward.

Above all, I congratulate Air Canada for not using gates 50/52 to park a 787! (I kid, I kid. I'm sure those gates can't accommodate a wide-body). It's bad enough when 321s get parked at 50/52.

Yes full enough to fill up AC ‘s 787, 777 & A330 planes ✈️ departing from Toronto YYZ 🇨🇦 to International destinations is great✅! And it also helps get more attention for Air Canada to keep adding additional international flights at YYZ too.

Although it still won’t get Edmonton YEG - London Heathrow LHR UK 🇬🇧 / Frankfurt FRA Germany 🇩🇪 route on the AC 787 in the current or near future.

The new AC Airbus A321 XLR fleet of planes coming eventually, is great & perfect fit to connect YEG to Europe nonstop year round in the future✅.

YEG-YHZ has been increased to 13x weekly on Westjet as a part of some Western Canada - Atlantic Canada schedule changes they just published.

Aw, geez. Even a blue state and city gets caught in the Trump blowback in Canada? :(

Blue state or not, the border agents are being nuts. I know its anecdotal, but on the company I work, in the last month, we had 4 people being harassed and having trouble getting into California (the bluest of blue states). Phones searched, hours being interrogated in a room, name calling, accusations of "working in the US illegally", etc... all mixed with odes to the Cheeto-in-Chief and how "things are different now". And I'm talking high income executives, with strong ties to Canada, stereotypically white, going on a business trip, and they probably only got off the hook because they: 1 - showed their bank account statements and could get a hold of documentation proving ties to Canada; 2 - are older, not very active in social media, and had no negative comments about Mango Mussolini.. This is the kind of stuff that scares people off, on top of the boycott. I, for once, have cancelled two US trips I had planned out of fear of being treated like a criminal, considering my visible ethnicity and my very open and frequent posts against him and his administration. I know a few other who have done the same, and it'll only get worse from here, I expect.
 
People are still going to travel, perhaps not quite as much if the economy is uncertain, demand in Canada and elsewhere will shift to ABU (anywhere but US).

As well as not wanting to travel to the US for political reasons, many Canadians have heard the stories of people being harassed and treated badly at the border, by US customs people on a power trip or with political views who feel they can get away with it now because of the current US administration.

Not surprising that WJ keeps shuttling us to their fortress to fill their planes out YYC - as usual. Someone has to pay for their nearly $60M monthly interest on their loan for their new terminal.
