The flight will rotate through a daily rouge YYZ-SAN as well.

So there you go!! The question about SAN has been answered.

The YVR - California daily flights tally will now be a lucky thirteen!

Aaaaaand you heard it here first!

Wow! TWO new Cali routes in one day...!

The new YVR-SJC route must be a result of the growing market for biz/tech traffic between the two cities.

The SAN one should generate new leisure traffic - hence rouge.

By thirteen flights a day, you mean just with AC?

Johnny Aussie · #**8223** Posted **Nov 19, 2015, 6:17 AM**

Ok.... I'm really sorry for this. But I just cannot believe what I keep finding.

Like I said... You heard it here first folks.

Effective 4th June daily YVR-ORD on E90s.

AC534 YVR1315 - 1915ORD D E90
AC535 ORD0730 - 1000ORD D E90

Yes, sorry I edited my post.

If we were to include total YVR-California it would be more like 27 daily next summer.

Amazing. Thank you for the breathless updates, Johnny Aussie.

All good news posts! Thanks Johnny. If there's enough demand, maybe KIX will turn into a year-round route...

SFO is supposed to be going to 5 per airlineroute.net so maybe that's not confirmed / loaded yet?! Let's go with 12 for now

Ok.... Now this is just getting out of control crazy bonkers nuts!

That would give YVR direct links to 12-13 Chinese cities (depending on the outcome of the applications of course and the Shenzhen on CZ rumour... Any updates on that!?)

Beijing Capital Airlines has applied for a route to Melbourne in 2016 too.

I have to go to bed soon but this is all just too exciting...6am Personal Training!

This has to be a one day record for YVR route announcements / enhancements etc...

And who remembers this as part of my post on 13th November....

"Bloody hell... What's next?

Wuhan
Fuzhou
Xi'an
Qingdao
Harbin
Nanjing
Hangzhou

Seems rather limitless now.... Who would have thunk it?!"

So every long-haul Chinese carrier either flies to YVR now or has been approved or has applied to fly to YVR.

Air China
China Eastern
China Southern
Sichuan
Hainan
Xiamen
Tianjin
Beijing Capital

and CX I'll just throw in as it is still technically "Chinese" but yes I understand under a completely different set of rules etc...

I almost do not believe it.

SSP challenge! Who knows how to make a map on gcmap.com of all these Chinese routes from YVR and then post the picture?

I really need to go to bed!

Looks messy, with the path going all over the place on the Chinese side, and I can't figure out how to prevent SZX from covering HKG...

Is ORD year round and SAN seasonal?

The AA service was operated out of their Reno Air operation, IIRC, however AA might have done the service when they had a mini hub at SJC.

The new flights appear to be early recipient of AC-CA joint venture. AC is putting a lot of extra transborder capacity that will be of use to connection pax from China. The ORD flights pair well with the PVG, PEK, HKG departures.
