Well, I was studying the June schedule, and figured that there is no way they can add any additional flight to the YVR based aircraft. They do have to cut some frequency (and routes) to fit most of the scheduled and announced flights in. I think they might announced the daily YWG before realizing they can't possible fit it into the YVR schedule (unless they give up YQG), so they'll have to settle with 5x weekly. Even this is only possible after cutting YUL from 7x to 5x and SJD from 2x to 1x weekly.
Here are all the first flight of the day for YVR-based planes:
#1 - daily LAX
#2 - daily SFO
#3 - alternate YYC/YXE
#4 - early morning flight to YYZ and stay there
Additional serviced are provided by YYZ-based planes
#5 - early morning flight from YYZ, work on YVR routes from late-morning to late-evening, then fly back as red-eye
#6 - mid-morning flight from YYZ, and stay at YVR for the rest of the day
YVR base will give all YKF flights back to YKF, but will handle all YOW flights (possibly due to YOW base are handling the new flights from YHZ)
It's surprising that people was talking about 30 planes is too much for them. Now looks like they have 26 scheduled for June, but as far as can see from YVR schedule, they may not have enough planes... Maybe they'll base #27 at YVR?
Maybe the earliest we can see anything like YHM is S24? But likely they would have to bail out on some other routes, or expand beyond 30 planes for that.
