If you want to sacrifice comfort and flight times, yes.

Spirit has PBG-FLL return for as little as CAD 98$ tax in.

On the Airbus side, it is the same thing the 320 and 321 are ones airlines are buying. The smaller jets can be offered but it airlines are not interested what is the point.

So basically CSeries, Boeing and Airbus has families with only two effective models.

Exactly !

Oh and LOL at Leahy even mentioning the A318, even Boeing smartened up and ditched the 736.

Don't need to hope. It's a fact. The plane has exceeded expectations during testing. That will surely be emulated by the airlines during their operations.

The C Series is the first 100% new single-aisle aircraft in 30 years.

Royal Air Maroc will fly twice daily to YUL from July 2 to September 10, with a mix of B744, B788 and B763. Second flight will arrive at 07h15 and leave at 08h45 in the morning.

Along with Rouge starting the route on June 3, that will mean 3 daily flights on YUL-CMN four days out of the week.

3x daily is a lot. What is this traffic mostly? Business? Leisure? Family?

Seems to me that would be the Sukhoi Superjet 100? The C Series is close behind and the Mitsubishi Regional Jet should be rolled out in the next year or so. So three aircraft (plus whatever Embraer has for their next Gen aircraft) competing for a market that Boeing and Airbus say doesn't really exist.

3x daily technically but not really. More like 12x weekly it just so happens that the flights are on the same day.

The Superjet-100 should be available in several versions depending on the length of the fuselage for a passenger capacity ranging from 75 to 95 passengers.

GreaterMontréal Jan 14, 2016 9:46 PM

the CS500 is in the cards, 160-180 seats.

I thought the E-Jet family from Embraer was an all-new design as well. Wikipedia says that it was originally supposed to be slightly derivative from the ERJ-145, but that they scrapped that plan for an all-new design.

Mostly VFR. Visiting friends and relatives. Some tourism as well, especially in summer, justifying the second flight.

More like 18 weekly. 14 weekly by Royal Air Maroc, 4 weekly by Rouge.

The CSeries doesn't compete with the Sukhoi Superjet 100 or the Mitsubishi RJ, both of which carry less than 100 passengers. The largest variant of the Sukhoi has a 1 class dense config option of 108 seats, but that is it.

The Sukhoi Superjet 130 is a planned stretch of the Superjet 100, and scheduled to roll out in 2020. That plane will compete with the CSeries.

1:30 AM departure. There can't be many (if any) other flights leaving at that time. I thought YYZ had some controls limiting late night departures. More appropriate time for a YVR Asia departure.

Pearson quietly relaxed the nighttime curfew, without any press release, a few years ago... there are now regular flights which arrive and depart after midnight...... :)

So 4 weekly, not 7.

Daily service right off the bat was wishful thinking anyways.

CX and BR leave at 0120 AM. All timed for connections in Asia.

Rumours of IB and TP to YYZ sometime this year (I'd bet on IB though, TP seems like wishful thinking). In addition to SN, CZ, WW - shaping up to be an interesting year.

In my wishlist, I'd like to see LX and NH.

National Airlines new St. John's-Orlando direct flight has launched. Airline will also offer flights from Vancouver, Windsor, Las Vegas, and San Juan.

Given the Canadian airports they chose, I hope they realize we're not some eastern hub and that it's not easy or affordable for everyone closer to us than Windsor to connect through here.
