Final report in this series, and the least info-filled one of them all, partially because I was too tired to log much about the experience, since the flight was delayed by a good bit.



YYZ AIRPORT


Immigration went well enough, but the flight has been extremely delayed (including gate changes), so here's YYZ going into near ghost town mode, as this flight would end up being one of the last departures of the day.

How often did you see a CRJ safety video?

IN-FLIGHT


No service, probably because everyone was asleep. When I woke up, I tried the IFE, but the map wasn't really working.

ARRIVAL


Well, I didn't capture the arrival, but here's RDU at 1 AM, about as much of a ghost town as YYZ was.

Conclusion

I wish that AC (or Jazz) would make up for the delay better, and I also forgot to claim the potential compensation, considering this was an AC flight leaving Canada. Maybe the wildfires happening at the time were responsible. Who knows.
