The idea of needing to go outside in the winter to board in icy cold temperatures is totally a non starter for me. Seats were very uncomfortable though the leg room not too terrible. Attendants were nice

The idea of needing to go outside in the winter to board in icy cold temperatures is totally a non starter for me. Seats were very uncomfortable though the leg room not too terrible. Attendants were nice

The experience was good. Flight was on time. Liked how they offered to accept carryon baggage for free before as I was checking in online.

Flight was delayed by 45 min. No problems. Everyone took it in stride.

Crew was friendly and helpful; cabin seemed roomy even in economy class.

The flight attendants that assisted me were exceptionally nice, kind and helpful

Something wrong with the plane so had to deplane and waited over 2 hours to finally leave

AC needs to update their fleet. Too many mechanical issues, dated planes and too many delays

They charge 5 dollars for plastic headphones for a flight of 1 hour! Seats are awful. Service is terrible.

was wondreful! just let me know what airline im flying in advance!

On this flight, we didn't even get water offered, nor any other beverage. Therefore we got a snack of pretzels. Flight was good and Air Canada a good airline
