- Nicky, Maz, and Liam are heading to India on Air Canada's 787-9 for another three class comparison! The catch is that they're not leaving from Canada... They're taking Air Canada's Fifth Freedom route from London's Heathrow airport!

My record for the call bell challenge is with Air France in premium economy on their 777 from Paris til Buenos Aires - 90 minutes 😂
my record, is that they legit never came.
@@theasianbaron7132Me too. That was on Malaysia Airlines. Not too surprising 😂
At least half of the time I've tried the call bell challenge on British Airways Premium Economy, they've utterly failed.
@@LeeAviation lmao.
Ethiopian Airlines is even worse😂
Nicky getting three seats in Economy is not flying Economy. It's lucky bonus Economy, rivalling the more expensive seats; crucially, with the right know-how, virtual lie-flat bed when you need it
It’s still economy regardless you need a get a life
@@superlogistics1 his point is is that he gets more room's
Are you really flying economy or premium economy if no one is sitting next to you??
I flew Air Canada from Vancouver Canada to Bisbane Australia. For the 15 hour flight, I got a premium round trip ticket. I was also on a 787 Dreamliner and loved it. Didn't even have jetlag (something that Boeing has designed to reduce on Dreamliners). I was upset I didn't have (free) access to the Maple louge but that was OK since I knew I would eat on the plane. Coming home, they upgraded me to Business and I was just spoiled. When the Captain said they might land an hour early, I was like 'No, take your time.' I've yet to check out Economy so thank you for this video. I'm a fan of Air Canada and the Dreamline is my favorite plane to fly on.
We need more Canadian aviation, yes Air Canada, you need try it again, with Canadian Catering, in a route to from Canada
no one is paying 600 for dogshit domestic
You are a cruel, cruel parson. At least let them fly Porter.
@@royalfatk1dd Round trip Vancouver to Toronto May of last year: economy class, $278. Flying business class, lay down seats Vancouver to Mumbai in November (17+ hour flight): $3217. Always travel with them. It's always been a great airline for me.
@@joycekunzelman7435 3k for that trip to mumbai is awesome
Flown AC four times from Europe to YYZ, probably the worst airline over the pond. So bad food, limited IFE and worst of it all rude cabin crew. Definitely my last choice. Also flown them domestically from Toronto to Vancouver and to Ottawa and back. Not impressed. My gf flew their business class from Europe to YYZ. Food didn't look good, no dine on demand.. just a week product. Would be nice if AC finally would try to do a bit more for their customers.
Nicky's reaction to seeing the special livery brought me untold joy.
Liam belongs in Business Class....but only if First isn't available. 😉
Yay, Nicky again in Economy!!!!
Haha nice typo on AC’s signage - “Prioritary” (1:37) 😂😂
I flew Air Canada economy in February. The IFE and seat were great. The food was poor. That was true of both the outbound (LHR to Vancouver) and return flights.
Each had one poor main meal and and one poor snacky meal.
I love this series!! Keep it up, this is super infomative for someone such as myself, whos a frequent traveler!
Best way to review a flight.. Review all the classes at once, altogether... Bang on.. 🔥
Well done, nice to see all 3 classes reviewed on the same flight. As for menu, they also put this on their app so you can see before the flight what will be served. While their business class might not stack up against some other carriers it’s still a pretty good seat in the sky. I have flown their business class a number of times to Europe, Asia and Australia and found them to be good for the most part. Heathrow lounge is great in fact I would rate it better than some of the other Star Alliance lounges. Enjoy your reviews.
Obviously Maz got the better business class meal for the first service than Liam which explains her excitement. 🙂 I also love the Maple Leaf lounges, we also have a smaller one here in Frankfurt in Terminal 1 at the B gates which is my preferred non first class lounge in Frankfurt Terminal 1 since it is better and quieter than the Lufthansa business class and Senator lounges. Singapore Airlines even sends their first class passengers to the Maple Leaf lounge or alternatively to the Lufthansa Senator lounge for their short Frankfurt stop on their way from JFK to Singapore. Most passengers prefer the Maple Leaf lounge over the Lufthansa Senator lounge which is not really better than a Lufthansa business class lounge and hell, nobody knows why Lufthansa Senator lounges qualify as first class lounges in the Star Alliance.
Was gonna joke that they switched Liam's business class first meal with the women (not sure of her name), first meal
Enjoyable and informative video. Thank you all.
Great video once again. Thanks:)
Its always such a surprise time when being in the Air Canada Lounges :P . LA Maple Leaf Lounge? Awful. Packed half the time (I got told to come back because it was so full the ASSIGNED seating was used up), a lil salad + drink bar that was mostly empty. but then in the Toronto one it had an amazing buffet, all stocked liquor, so much privacy (lots of space). So its always a "what am I going to get" because for the same price the experience is SO different with AC lounges at different airports.
Maybe I just caught LA on a bad day, but it seemed wild to me to have such a small space considered a "lounge". There was lots of grumpy people :P
That is so awesome. I love Air Canada thank you. 👍 keep it up
good to see all of you guys again
I enjoy flying Air Canada, no complaints so far. Will be trying their International Business Class this month. Looking forward to the Signature Suite Lounge at YVR, it's a step or two up from the Maple Leaf Lounge.
Love it! Review SAS in all three classes!!!
Can't believe I missed you all flying out on AC. I hand over the catering on AC at LHR. You need to do another review as we have now changed caterer (now the same caterer as VS out of LHR). Love to see what you all think of the change.. 😊
Flew Air Canada once roundtrip from SFO-LHR with stops in Canada. With the exception of the plane changes, the service on board was of the best I've had flying economy.
I find it funny when Nicky talks about legroom being good when he’s like 5’5” 😆
Love seeing my airline on your page. So happy that you enjoyed our MLL.
As a Canadian I like to see people flying the flag
Always waiting for videos. Watch fully and hope your channel grows more.
The menu wasn’t the standard international business class
Menu. Maybe that’s why they didn’t have printed menus.
Maybe catering changed the menu or something and they couldn't reprint? Usually they are pretty good at providing one and it's also on the AC app and on the IFE.
There was a menu on the IFE (screen)
Great to watch your videos, you guys all got great vibe. I follow Sam Chui and simply aviation and it's refreshing to see your "styles". :)
7 years ago, I flew to 7 countries with my baby girl before she was 1 year old. She never cried, never put a tantrum but you know how babies are in closed space, they don't stay put. Of all the airlines I took, Air Canada left us with the worst experience. The hostess threatened to call the captain on us if we didn't keep our daughter on our lap. We were sitting front row against the wall. On a 8 hour flight, it is all but normal to let the baby crawl between our legs when there's no turbulence. But this Air Canada hostess was keeping an eye on us and was really not friendly. It was my last time flying Air Canada.
Air Canada have the best flight attendants, they are so nice, love flying air Canada 🇨🇦
From other reviews…frosty AC crew is pretty standard!
I love your videos and would love to see more of them please ❤😊
I'd love a review like this for United, they've only ever featured them in US airline same-cabin comparison videos before
United Denver to Japan business class IMO was the best business class flight ive ever been on. Food, service, seat, entertainment...they lacked a drinks menu like some other airlines.
Tops Qatar, Etihad, Singapore, JAL, Delta, AA, and BA (the ones ive flown)
I Have Experience Premium Economy I Like The Product.Great Video And Info
I see a strong reason to pre-order your food when flying Business and Premium. You can do 30 days prior.
Interesting how you included a file photo shot of the Dreamliner in the awful ‘Frosted Leaf’ livery aka the ‘Toothpaste livery’. The new scheme and that of the plane you flew in, has to be the smartest livery in the skies today!
2 meal service in economy is something new to me who has flown British Airways!! One meal and one snacks is all you get on BA!!
The see you later really got me at 16:58 😭🙏
You can hear the crunch from that maple leaf waffle
I've never been on an Air Canada flight in J class and not been given a menu, even if there isn't a choice on an 1 1/2 hour flight, you at least get a card with what you can expect. On any long haul flights there has always been 3 or 4 choices of main dishes. I think there was probably a catering problem on this flight and Air Canada wasn't told what they were getting from the caterer. There has recently been a strike with Air Canada's catering provider in Toronto, perhaps the issues extend to London.
How did they fly Air Canada from London to India instead of from Canada itself?
I did a call bell challenge on Lufthansa LH462 on the 29.4.24 gave up after 10 mins, however on LH462 on the 27.4.24 (the one that did the emergency landing g),I waited less than one minute…so swings and roundabouts
Wait, Air Canada has cabotage rights to fly from LHR to BOM? This flight is no longer listed.
I think you can try vistara airlines if you are in India it is one of the best airlines
Try klm Alain Sith The New premium economyclass class. Like of you also like that
Hi, That was...interesting, the lounge in Heathrow for Air Canada very nice indeed, nice comparison between the three classes of travel, economy good seats, premium nice and Business nice, but saying that comparing with Emirates, I prefer Emirates as their products looks way nicer. The same could be said about the food, the call bell challenge, I wouldn't expect a very long wait for the flight attendant in the upper more premium cabins and economy, you can be waiting a while and let's totally be honest here, there will be more seats and more people to tend to their needs in economy so you expect quite a wait, at least the service delivery is decent.
Would still prefer EK over AC or other airlines to go to India. EK offers 2 check-in bags while AC and others offer only 1.
Both BA and Virgin Atlantic offer 2 checked bags between the UK and India.
No one is talking about AC premium economy seat do not have foot rest from below the seat, just the part that is in the front part
Can you try LOT POLISH AIRLINES
Air Canada 787 is on my bucket list to fly from Toronto to mayo beach at princess juliana
Bit of an odd route on AC... Didn't even realize they sold tickets for the LHR-BOM portion alone. Shame they couldn't provide good food or menus
No more polar route over Russia on Air Canada, you need to fly Air India for that
I love these videos
can you review vietnam airlines a350 from ho chi minh to paris
We had same in our fly to Antalya )
I love reviewing videos
Having flown a lot of AC in the last years, their decline has been pretty obvious. The food has always been pretty bad, but the service has become awful as well.
How could they not know what food they're serving? It's 2 different dishes and they should be on their load sheet. It can't be that hard. They simply don't care and I feel you could have called that out a bit more.
I had the misfortune of flying Air Canada last year from Heathrow to Vancouver and back....with the exception of one lovely, and frankly embarrassed, crew member, the rest were surly, uninterested, unfriendly and one of them was overtly racist toward the Asian passengers. He made several unacceptable comments and woke one of the passenger by hitting his turban and then insisted that he had his meal even though the poor guy told him that he was ill and didn't want it. I emailed Air Canada about it but obviously got no reply.....
Do an Updated review of Emirates :))
Awesome you on my national carrier
I've flown AC business many times, I have never ever not gotten a menu to choose from. Most odd.
please also fly on vistara, the best airline in india!!!
Try The Klm New premium economyclass. Like of you also want that
I took the air canada a lot good review of air canada
Welcomeee to Indiaaaa 🎉
KLM eco call bell challenge was about 35 minutes for me
Hey guys!! Which airlines allow in flight pets in cabin? I need to bring my pet Quaker Parrot from Montreal to Thailand.
Thank you! ❤
i dont who allows birds as pets in cabin but i know for sure that air canada does not allow birds
It looks as though AC is trying to cater for the Indian market whilst knowing the Brits enjoy a curry too. I’ve experienced AC Business Class a few times to and from Canada and always felt it was a solid product.
Nice ad.
No menu on a long-haul flight is crazy.
what cameras are you guys using?
The company should write a book about their travels and put pictures in it too.
Why is AC operating this flight from LHR to India?
Due to Russia airspace ban it can’t fly directly from yyz or YUL to India so it did a 5th freedom flight instead… if I’m not mistaken
I didn't know Air Canada did international trips originating outside their country. That's more competition for airlines doing direct flights between the 2 cities.
Must have been some sort of catering disruption as, having flown AC in biz and premium numerous times, you're always given a full menu in both classes. I love AC's premium economy because, even though we weren't shown the correct meal, the premium is is very close to that of biz, all on china, metal cutlery except all courses served on one try.
Try American Airlines next!
The meal Maz had was the business class lamb, same as Liam - one thought it was great, the other didn't. Everyone has different tastes.
Fairly common to share meals, VA Premium and Upper tend to have at least one option the same, the difference being one is served on a tray and the other as individual courses with the linen etc.
I guess I can take AC off my list especially for business class.
why does the economy guy always have 3 seats to himself;? FAKE?
maybe they just book 2 extra seats so they dont have anyone complaining about the cameras, im sure they can afford it
Your title needs to include your departure location.
I remember in 1959 watching the planes from the Queens Terminal. You hardly show the legroom in economy. Looks bad. Not the first time.
Finally liam gets to fly Business class. Nick finally gives up.
Hahaha that’s air Canada, the most random service. Sometimes it’s great, sometimes it’s the worst. 😂 I avoid air Canada on all cabin class. SQ is miles ahead of
I'm not sure how you got this flight? Air Canada does NOT fly direct from London to Mumbai, it would have to route via Canada. Can you explain how you got this flight? Every international carrier must transit through their home country. British Airways cannot fly direct from Toronto to Tokyo for example...
It’s one of their 5th freedom flights. YYZ to LHR to BOM
its seasonal, AC856/857. they will start it later this year
As an Indian in Canada, this was a treat!!
Instead of economy should’ve pushed it up to first class then business then premium economy
If the Australian carriers had seats where you could adjust inflation, would you have Qantatative Easing?
Do westjet dreamliner 787 only from Calgary
I want to try Air Canada! 😀
Damn I got hungry at 00 57 am watching u eat birynai
LHR catering looks pretty bad lol.
that catering is absolutely abysmal for the prices they charge, with no menus being the icing on the cake...pun intended
You had to make your own bed up in Business. I thought a team member would have done that for you. Any pyjamas/sleep attire?
she seems way to excited for premium eco
Oh wow 2 seconds off 4 minutes, what were the Econ people doing sleeping.
Food on AC is really bad in Economy, but good if you are on a diet. I avoid them.
Liam could complain.... love the lady though
Air Canada needs to fly to Southern Africa.. Victoria Falls, Capetown, Nairobi.....
Pass through Heathrow and connect Canada, * explore the North America market *London to Africa... it's a nice plane. 10/10.
Canada to Accra then Victoria Falls and Capetown ...
Canada to Heathrow, Nairobi >>Harare
Emirates, Ethiopian, Kenyan are making millions in Southern Africa...
SAA used to be a gd airline. .
Canada Airlines has a market in Africa... you guys need to have a chat with Canadian Airlines and be on flights for new destinations..
I see Air Canada has Dakar(from YUL) , Accra and Lagos (both from YYZ)set as possible future routes according to their latest Investor Overview. I’ll predict these will come once the A321XLR’s arrive and frees up some 787s for this expansion. South Africa and Kenya/Ethiopia probably will come after.
