Went on an earlier, standby flight, but was delayed so we only save 30 minutes getting to Toronto. AND we were in business class on our original flight but had to go in economy on the earlier flight because pilots and crew “had to” go business. What?!?! The paying passenger (I am Super Elite) has to go economy so they can dead-head employees? That’s messed up. As in my other posts, I only take AIr Canada because there is little other choice for the destinations I need to get to. But I am not proud to show my Super Elite tag on my luggage.

Switching on “fasten seat belts” seems to be misused to restrict service
Not on time. Only water for a beverage. Crew did not even pick up empty water bottles!
My place was cancelled at the last minute throwing my traveling schedule off. I barely made it on the last ferry home.
Checked bag- one should be free for overseas flights. Seats were extremely uncomfortable. Will probably not fly Canada Air again.
Boarding was good. In cabin Service was perfunctory. Cabin crew were professional but not welcoming. Was very surprised there was not once were the passengers offered water overnight. A first for me on a trans Atlantic flight!
Our flight was cancelled half hour before boarding. We then had to spend hours on the phone to get a much longer re-route through Munich with an extra 10 hours of trip time. It caused us to miss a full day of long awaited vacation. We are extremely disappointed.
Ok, a very small soda in a small glass was all that was served. Pitiful. Comfort seat was not, no legroom at all would not recommend comfort class, not worth the extra.
I have not flown a major airline in over 10 years. All 3 flight with Rouge were late leaving and arriving due to various issues. I was worried my suitcase would get lost because I checked it 3 hours prior to flight. The flight was over an hour boarding and leaving and they lost my suitcase in Montreal. Lined up for over an hour at YVR for baggage location and the line never moved. Had to phone it in and that took forever. I should have been gome by 1am and was not back until 5am. I had been up 23 hours. Bag was not delivered until two days later. Could not hear a word the stewardesses said over the engine noise. At Jean Lesage 2 Rouge flights were cancelled, 2 delayed, and 2 on time: not good stats. Terrible experience. Oh yes, and in the case lost were my mother's ashes. She passed in May and I was unable to attend her funeral as I have a disbled 22 year old who cannot fly. I was in Quebec to meet my birth family for the first time at my grandmother's 100th birthday. I spoke with and wrote my mother for the last 8 years. We have never met. It would have made a damning story for Air Canada on the news if that bag had not been found and returned.
The flight was cancelled and air canada does not want to refund
