Reviewing Air Canada's 787 to India in all three classes | Business, Premium, Economy

Nicky, Maz, and Liam are heading to India on Air Canada's 787-9 for another three class comparison! The catch is that they're not leaving from Canada... They're taking Air Canada's Fifth Freedom route from London's Heathrow airport!

    Flown AC four times from Europe to YYZ, probably the worst airline over the pond. So bad food, limited IFE and worst of it all rude cabin crew. Definitely my last choice. Also flown them domestically from Toronto to Vancouver and to Ottawa and back. Not impressed. My gf flew their business class from Europe to YYZ. Food didn't look good, no dine on demand.. just a week product. Would be nice if AC finally would try to do a bit more for their customers.

    I flew Air Canada from Vancouver Canada to Bisbane Australia. For the 15 hour flight, I got a premium round trip ticket. I was also on a 787 Dreamliner and loved it. Didn't even have jetlag (something that Boeing has designed to reduce on Dreamliners). I was upset I didn't have (free) access to the Maple louge but that was OK since I knew I would eat on the plane. Coming home, they upgraded me to Business and I was just spoiled. When the Captain said they might land an hour early, I was like 'No, take your time.' I've yet to check out Economy so thank you for this video. I'm a fan of Air Canada and the Dreamline is my favorite plane to fly on.

    Well done, nice to see all 3 classes reviewed on the same flight. As for menu, they also put this on their app so you can see before the flight what will be served. While their business class might not stack up against some other carriers it’s still a pretty good seat in the sky. I have flown their business class a number of times to Europe, Asia and Australia and found them to be good for the most part. Heathrow lounge is great in fact I would rate it better than some of the other Star Alliance lounges. Enjoy your reviews.

    Obviously Maz got the better business class meal for the first service than Liam which explains her excitement. 🙂 I also love the Maple Leaf lounges, we also have a smaller one here in Frankfurt in Terminal 1 at the B gates which is my preferred non first class lounge in Frankfurt Terminal 1 since it is better and quieter than the Lufthansa business class and Senator lounges. Singapore Airlines even sends their first class passengers to the Maple Leaf lounge or alternatively to the Lufthansa Senator lounge for their short Frankfurt stop on their way from JFK to Singapore. Most passengers prefer the Maple Leaf lounge over the Lufthansa Senator lounge which is not really better than a Lufthansa business class lounge and hell, nobody knows why Lufthansa Senator lounges qualify as first class lounges in the Star Alliance.

    Its always such a surprise time when being in the Air Canada Lounges :P . LA Maple Leaf Lounge? Awful. Packed half the time (I got told to come back because it was so full the ASSIGNED seating was used up), a lil salad + drink bar that was mostly empty. but then in the Toronto one it had an amazing buffet, all stocked liquor, so much privacy (lots of space). So its always a "what am I going to get" because for the same price the experience is SO different with AC lounges at different airports. Maybe I just caught LA on a bad day, but it seemed wild to me to have such a small space considered a "lounge". There was lots of grumpy people :P

    Hi, That was...interesting, the lounge in Heathrow for Air Canada very nice indeed, nice comparison between the three classes of travel, economy good seats, premium nice and Business nice, but saying that comparing with Emirates, I prefer Emirates as their products looks way nicer. The same could be said about the food, the call bell challenge, I wouldn't expect a very long wait for the flight attendant in the upper more premium cabins and economy, you can be waiting a while and let's totally be honest here, there will be more seats and more people to tend to their needs in economy so you expect quite a wait, at least the service delivery is decent.

    Great to watch your videos, you guys all got great vibe. I follow Sam Chui and simply aviation and it's refreshing to see your "styles". :) 7 years ago, I flew to 7 countries with my baby girl before she was 1 year old. She never cried, never put a tantrum but you know how babies are in closed space, they don't stay put. Of all the airlines I took, Air Canada left us with the worst experience. The hostess threatened to call the captain on us if we didn't keep our daughter on our lap. We were sitting front row against the wall. On a 8 hour flight, it is all but normal to let the baby crawl between our legs when there's no turbulence. But this Air Canada hostess was keeping an eye on us and was really not friendly. It was my last time flying Air Canada.

    I've never been on an Air Canada flight in J class and not been given a menu, even if there isn't a choice on an 1 1/2 hour flight, you at least get a card with what you can expect. On any long haul flights there has always been 3 or 4 choices of main dishes. I think there was probably a catering problem on this flight and Air Canada wasn't told what they were getting from the caterer. There has recently been a strike with Air Canada's catering provider in Toronto, perhaps the issues extend to London.

How could they not know what food they're serving? It's 2 different dishes and they should be on their load sheet. It can't be that hard. They simply don't care and I feel you could have called that out a bit more.
