So since this post, we have PD adding YQG and YSB, and now we have -1 YVR but +2 YYC, so the benchmark for summer is 96.
YYC will have up to 8 flights per day, whereas YVR will have between 5-6 flights at the summer peak. Capacity on YVR won't actually be down that much - 4x 321 on AC is still almost 800 seats alone, and the 2x 7M8 and 1x 789 last summer is just under 650, not including the three days a week when the 321 is upgraded to a 789. That should offset the loss of the WS flight.

So for WS, the YEG reduction and the YYZ gain pretty much offset each other as do the YYC gain and strange YVR cut. YYC will have an unheard of amount of capacity on it this summer.
Today’s departure count: 80
Sun flights count (both transborder & international): 13
Today's cancellation count (so far): 3
AF left late tonight and used gate 17A instead of B. AC 345 on 28 and AC 888 on 15.
