[edit] Your new article Air Canada Cargo

Hi. I'm not sure this justifies its own article independent of the main airline article. In any event, it's likely to get deleted ASAP by some editor unless you can:

  • establish why a separate article is justify
  • expand it beyond a sentence
  • wikify and categorize.

[edit] New Toronto Pearson International Airport stats

Hi there, while current (or more recent) stats are a good idea, you have to reference them. I have not reverted the edit, as I assume you have the reference handy and can add it quickly. Thanks, Flyguy649 15:48, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

I'll get to it later, or alternatively you can see what was there in a previous edit, for example under the History tab, compare your edit and the one previous. Also, it is helpful if you could sign your posts. just use four tildes (~~~~). Regards, Flyguy649 19:36, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Air Canada Embraer 190 options

I'm new to Wikipedia and am uncomfortable editing major articles. I think that the fleet table should show options for 60 Embraer 190's. source [1] Air Canada Press Release December 22, 2005. Regards --Rosetown 19:32, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Air Canada 787 options exercised

Good scoop - I've made some minor changes - also see Air Canada discussion page. Regards--Rosetown 21:46, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Air Canada

I know Air Canada says so but Air Canada is very very very very very slow with updating their fleet website. 4 years after the 747 was sold to Aerolineas Argentinas they still had the 747 on the active fleet side. The Boeing site is more accurate. Anyways, the total order for the 777 is 8 777-200LR and 8 777-300ER. There is one more coming from ILFC which would be a 777-300ER but that is on hold. They put that single one plane order just to get their feet wet with ILFC. This was before the Pilots union allowed Air Canada to purchase planes from Boeing. A company the size of Air Canada doesn't lease 1 plane. The lease still stands so I will give you that about 17 planes, but it has no date of delivery. Its not determined if Air Canada would take it. Marcus--Bangabalunga 20:56, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

AC already took delivery of the leased 77W last week.FlyAirCanada 01:41, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
You would be correct. 9 777-300ER and 8 777-200LR. The other thing is I think we should get rid of how Air Canada uses its planes. We cant narrow them down to Pacific or Atlantic and so on. Just last month an A330-300 did the Vancouver to Tokyo route. This route is almost always 767-300ER. Air Canada juggles its planes around depending on capacity or maintance issues. I dont think region usage is needed. Take care, Marcus --Bangabalunga 21:01, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
I agree... I had another question though: Like the 777 order, can AC switch between 787 models? I read on some websites that AC has ordered a mix of 788s and 789s, but the AC website shows orders for only 788s. So I am guessing that they can switch between the 787 models, too? FlyAirCanada 21:15, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
My read is they can also vary the 787 mix. Obviously Boeing expects AC to decide on the mix by some specific date (unknown). The same sort of conditions apply to the Embraer order, initially, the options were a mix of 175s and 190s and it now appears to be all 190s.
I was the one who changed aircraft deployment from short/medium/long haul to regions. Regardless of which system is used there will be some grey areas. I also indicated in the AC discussion page that editors should feel free to revert. I don't have strong feelings regarding this.

My belief is it will be all 787-8. The 787-9 doesn't really fit in with the 777-200LR being there with 270 seats and all. The 787-8 will have around 220 seats and can serve many cities like Winnipeg, Edmonton and Quebec city with international destinations like Tokyo, Shanghai and Paris.--Bangabalunga 22:35, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
Marcus's observation may be correct. However, we will not truly know until AC and Boeing ink the mix. The article is about what we know. AC has indicated that is a mix of 8s and 9s. If Boeing indicates otherwise, and I don't know that they have, I would be inclined to place credence in Boeing. Regards, --Rosetown 00:34, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
Any chance they will order the 783 to replace the 762 and 763 on some routes? Also, I am pretty sure the order is a mix of 788s and 789s. They need the 789 for some routes FlyAirCanada 00:52, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
The 3s are marketed to high density catchments in close proximity to one another. Not what Canada is all about. AC has not publicly expressed interest in them. Regards, --Rosetown 01:35, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for adding a source to the comment you added in the WestJet Article. :) Greenboxed 02:17, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AC 777

Actually, Air Canada is also the first to operate the 77L, so the general statement is more applicable. Thanks. -- Phoenix2 (holla) 01:04, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
