It was a short flight so, everything went smoothly and we got to where we needed to be safely.

I was tired enough to fall asleep soon after takeoff and slept until "we are starting our descent to Toronto" announcement. That's not bad at all.

Very tight seats - no legroom at all, very tight to the person in front of you. If you have basic fare, you are loading zone 6 regardless of where you are sitting in the plane - meaning even as a middle aisle person at the front of the plane, I had to get people to get up and let me in as they had boarded earlier. Having to pay for a carry on is criminal. I am a frequent flyer, and air Canada has now joined the list of other terrible North American Airlines.

Delayed by 5+ hours and they give a voucher for only $20 CAD which isn’t even redeemable at any place with edible food. Then took almost an hour to clean craft after it landed. And nonsensical boarding delayed even further. We didn’t leave until 1:30am….

The lead flight attendent was outstanding. We were delayed waiting for a connection and she kept us up-to-date with a great sense of humor. She also made sure a passenger in the back of the plane was sble to get out first to make a connection. She needs to be recognized by your company! She is awesome!

Very bed experience never want to travel air canada anymore

I travelled in Business class for the first time and wish I could do that again.

Really out of Air Canada's control due to long delay because of mechanical issues. While doing their best, disappointed by their assumption that all passengers have smart phones. Should have communicated food voucher availability at gate area. Late arrival cost me an extra $51 because public transit was not available, Otherwise, feel Air Canada did their best dealing with their challenges. Will likely continue using them in the future.

They canceled my flight, I had to rent a car, drive 14 hours. They tell to go on line for a refund, but only offer $24 for a $210 flight and you can’t get hold of anybody by phone and no help from staff at the airport.

I wish to travel with Air Canada for my next trip
