  • Your eyes are not deceiving you. Air Canada did indeed remove all its passenger Boeing 767s in 2020. It then converted some of the jets into freighters. The flag carrier's leisure-focused unit, Rouge, also withdrew its passenger 767s, with the final flights taking off in June 2020. But it's true: Air Canada will use the aging passenger type to fly to the US for the first time since 2020. It’s all thanks to wet-leased aircraft from US carrier Omni Air International.

    CORRECTION: At around the 03:00 mark, we misspoke and stated "A320-300" instead of A320-200 when mentioning other types on the YYZ-SFO route.

    maybe it's because the 767 was built before Boeing merged with the cursed mcdonnell douglas.

    • @FlyByWire1
      @FlyByWire1 Před měsícem +7

      Idk if that’s the case because they still have 19 787s on order. I think it’s about needing more capacity asap which they cannot get with brand new aircraft in the backlog.

    Ironcally WestJet wet leased some 767's, but servicing them made them enconomicaly unviable and were rapidly replaced with 787's.

    767 are great. The great thing about them are there are 4 aisle seats, 2 window seats and 1 middle seat. I like aisle seats and there is only one dreaded middle seats.

    Maybe they think these old types are more reliable. Yes more expensive to operate but does not get grounded. Or just shortage of aircraft in general globally.
