Hi all,
Below is the pictures from my trip to Washington DC from Toronto
Toronto Pearson Terminal 1 departure level for AC flights only
Towards the US customs, which is located at the transborder part of the terminal
Past security at the transborder airside part of Pearson
Our empty gate as it was still early
Browsing around the transborder part of the terminal
The ned of the transborder area and to the end on the other side of glass barriers is the international section
A peak at the international section
The left wing of the transborder terminal area
Through those glass walls is the omestic part of the terminal
A peak into the domestic gates area
Transborder to the left, domestic to the right
The end of the transborder area
Now exploring the right wing of the transborder area
The right wing was filled with artworks from Pan Am games held in Toronto back in the summer
Back to our gate for boarding the flight
The overpriced express train from airport to downtown- not many people use it
Although it was not very cold, we went to get de-iced
Descend with amazing views over Washington D.C.
Got off from the plane to the departure hall
Gate 3 is reserved for Air Canada flights
Passing by the check in counters for Air Canada
The aerial images of the DCA airport through the years
Walking towards the newer part of the airport and the metro
In the newer part of the terminal
Washington is a great city and must see with so many nice architecture, impressive government buildings and great museums most of which are free. I live you with some touristic bonus pictures of Washington. Enjoy :)
Metro station
DCA airport can bee seen in the distance
Bethesda- a suburb north of downtown
Your photographs taken during descend are really so amazing!! Totally enjoyed looking at them. Same for your tourism bonus in Washington. Great photos!
It's always interesting to see individual IFE screens being installed on such small aircrafts. Haha. Thanks for sharing this report with great photos!
Thanks very much Tn92 I'm glad you enjoyed the pictures :)
Thanks for this amazing Washington bonus and the deicing process! Great AC cabin with comfy seats and IFE
Thanks very much st7515 :)
YYZ looked eerily empty that morning. The flight didn't look anything extraordinary, yet AC's E190 look awesome!
Great aerials, specially during landing into DCA!
Thanks for the D.C. bonus, it brought really nice memories back.
Thanks very much Chibcha. Actually YYZ looked empty when I took the pictures as it was around 5 am but by around 7 in the morning, the terminal was more crowded as there are many US flights that depart around 7 or 8 am.
A great report with beautiful pictures as usual. I really like the AC E-jets. It's nice that they all have PTVs. It's quite a contrast with the service provided on the YUL-DCA route on an uncomfortable Air Canada Jazz CRJ200. Nice bonus pics. I hope you had a good time in my city!
Thanks so much Kevin. Yes, I love the Embraers seat comfort the most in all AC fleet. Very cool that you live in DC. It's such a nice city with so many things to see and do, I don't know why I thought you lived in Montreal. We should plan a FR gathering in Canada, if Toronto it'd be the best as the plane spotting in Pearson is very cool too :)
