    Admittedly I hate the CRJ range of aircraft but this looked like a halfway decent flight, especially with the seat back ife. Don’t know if I could do a 4 hour hop though. Excellent trip report and thanks for sharing

      Thank you! Yeah 4 hours is pushing it, but not too bad. Definitely better than the CRJ-200 :)

    That sounded like an amazing flight! I feel like in the future they should do this flight on like a 737MAX or maybe an A220! A 4 hour flight on a regional jet sounds cool but weird at the same time. Amazing trip report! 😅🎉

    Looked like an enjoyable travel day. I just flew this type of aircraft in business class last week on a domestic flight!
    AC made a new creative safety video, I guess it didn't trickle down to the CRJs quite yet. The audio sounded like the old versions.
    P.S. I didn't hear any accent! Hehe.

    • @GenkisTravels

    great video. Is air canada strict with 23kg baggage weight or they will let you 1-2kg over. How is the customer service

    • @GenkisTravels
      @GenkisTravels  Před rokem

      Customer service was good, I had no issues really. As for the baggage weight, with my gold status, it never became an issue so I can’t for sure say if they’re strict about it.

      @@GenkisTravels I know, United always does the same thing as well! In January, I booked a United Flight from SFO to HNL, and the aircraft was shown as Boeing 757-300 after I booked that flight. But a week later, the aircraft was changed to a Boeing 777-200ER. But that's a good thing because I get to upgrade my class from Basic Economy to Premium Plus, and Premium Plus was better and more comfortable than Basic economy. Here's my flight report for the Premium Plus Trip from SFO to HNL: czcams.com/video/xThEdlWJRTI/video.html

      I flew on UA Toronto to Houston return on an Embraer several months ago. The terminal at Pearson is an embarrassment for Toronto as a world class city. The entry doors wouldn’t open due to very cold temperatures outside. Every set of doors had a sign to try the next set. After 3 sets I had to force open the door with my body holding it with my back while getting my luggage inside. A woman of 73. Anyway…back to UA. Business class. A total nightmare. The flight is much longer on this plane. It was old and the absolute worst I’ve ever been in. Business was seated last after literally everyone else. No space left for carry on luggage. Food was terrible. Attendant service on the way back was almost non existent. Absolutely never again. Going to Houston again soon and the thought of a last minute switch to an Embraer is making me think twice about going at all. To top it off, when I arrived at my window seat on the flight back a woman in the aisle seat said, “Oh. Are you sitting here?” then asked if I’d switch with her husband who was several rows back. Back in Toronto, checked luggage took an overly long time to arrive on the carousel. “Priority” luggage came through after most other luggage. Definitely not worth paying for more than an economy ticket on this flight.
