That would be the ultimate goal getting year-round service. I would think LH to MUC would be another candidate for year-round service but definitely not daily.

There are still a few rumblings about rouge too to CDG and another destination in Asia (most likely another Japan route). There is still slack in the YVR-KIX route as well. 2 days of idle metal on that 763. The other 763 to be based in YVR will rotate daily through LAX and both Hawaii destinations in the peak summer next year as previously reported.

Also have been reading on the ever reliable airliners.net that KLM is going to daily year-round YVR-AMS in effect with next summer's scheds. This is coming from the same guy who brought up the AF rumour... so there we go.

Europe breakdown of the 69 weekly flights by destination next summer (all nonstop unless noted):

LHR 19
FRA 11
AMS 10 (1 weekly via YYC)
CDG 8 (1 weekly via YYC)
MUC 7
LGW 6
ZRH 3
MAN 2
KEF 2
GLA 1
I noticed that YVR lists SAS to Copenhagen (CPH) under destinations ... wishful thinking or previous route that has been dropped
