FlyboyMTL Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 How much of a downgrade is this from the 777-300ER? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexcaban Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 If it comes with an increase in service, we don't have to worry about a downgrade. Hopefully it won't have First class on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kotar Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 How much of a downgrade is this from the 777-300ER? Their 787s are 293 seats, and their 773s are 313 seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribb Posted March 4, 2016 Author Share Posted March 4, 2016 I'm hoping they up the frequency. I think the aim is to eventually go daily. It could be also the route might become a mix of 77W & 787's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mont royal Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Come this summer, Air China is shifting to a 787-9 and doubling the number of weekly flights to Beijing to six. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenoflyzone Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Currently, Air China is 4x weekly to YUL. They are adding 2 frequencies and making it 6x weekly. As Chinese carriers are maxed out on frequencies based on the Canada-China bilateral, one of these frequencies comes from YVR, the other from YEG (cargo). So in essence, Quebec just stole 2 frequencies from Alberta and BC ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
