I liked the fact that we arrived on time. What I did not like, I paid for a seat. Unfortunately a very large women sat beside me (required a belt extension). Her body spilled to my side. Not her fault but I had to lean to the left because her body was literally on my side of the seat. This caused a back ache. I was unable to sit straight the entire flight. There should be some form allowance (wider seat) for morbidly obese passengers. These seats are not designed for extremely obese people. I feel compassionate towards these obese passengers but I got off the plane with a substantial lower back ache. I myself have a degenerative disk disease and this did not help me
It was a short flight so, everything went smoothly and we got to where we needed to be safely.
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….
I travelled in Business class for the first time and wish I could do that again.
It's was good in general. I had a annoying next seat passenger. But nothing nobody could do anything
the seats aren't the most comfy -- too little padding and I could feel whatever the passenger behind me was doing. Otherwise, it's all good.
My flight from Mexico City to Boston would have been fine, had I taken it, but because the final leg of the trip from Toronto to Boston was cancelled, I decided to fly on another carrier out of Mexico City that offered me a non, stop-direct route. Prior to this, I received several emails and text messages from Air Canada in regards to their Toronto to Boston flight being cancelled and about a similiar flights that departed much later that evening or the following day from Toronto to Boston. I would have hoped that Air Canada would have offered to seat on AeroMexico, but they did not. I flew on AeroMexico from Mexico City to Boston (direct) and enjoyed a wonderful flight. I replied to texts Air Canada's about my situation, but got no response. I have asked to be considered for a partial refund from Air Canada for the missed portion of my flight that I took with AeroMexico. I have yet to hear back.
I had difficulty passing through security with my electronic boarding pass with a mist matching time and my instant notification delay departure announcement. The security personal in CDMX claimed Aircanada didn’t notify them of any delay and therefore they didn’t allow me to pass though. I had to try again on a second security door that heard my explanation because at Aircanada counter there was nobody available.at that time. I was lucky enough to arrive last boarding minute after all the struggle.
Upgraded seat was worth the price. Purchase price of food was a little high
