Flying Air Canada to Rome

[jsnearline 2]

I recently booked tickets for my wife and I to travel from Washington DC to Rome vis Air Canada next month. I chose Air Canada because they had the cheapest fare for when we're going. I've flown Air Canada to Toronto a number of times with no problems. I'm curious how the service on Air Canada's international flights is. I'm also wondering how long it takes to make a connection through Toronto since you have to clear Canadian Customs before going to the international terminal.

Toronto Airport clears you pretty quick. Usually 10 - 20 minutes 1/2 hour if it is tipped. As for Air Canada, picture your trip to Toronto.. then make it longer. Service depends more on equipment. I can remember flying to Gander, and switching to an L1011.. Those were the days. Fresh brewed coffe, free movies.. Now you get squat.

I know for domestic travel Air Canada gives you just a smal cup of soft drink,coffor or tea, or water and maybe a tiny bag of pretzels. If you want a blanket/pillow, yiu pay $2 for it. I think they give ya a bit better service on the international flights. http://www.aircanada.com/en/travelinfo/

I have flown Air Canada extensively, both domestic and international. I'd have to say that they have the surliest, nastiest, ugliest flight attendants of any airline, with the worst service, worst movies, and terrible food.

On the other end of the scale is KLM, which I love flying. British Airways, too.

Enjoy your flight.
