Air Canada seat reviews

AVOID, sardine-can economy seats, the worst flight of my life, fell like inside a sardine can, almost no space for nothing, I not very big but AirCanada nowdays is the worst company in North America.

The seat was comfortable and the leg room was sufficient. The only problem is the seat did not recline.

In General there is pretty few room e.g. for people marching with crutches. And it is a pity that, even if you check in electronically asap, there is no possibility to find two seats next to one another when you travel as a couple.

Overhead bins are smaller than standard, most wheeled luggage that will fit in the overhead on larger planes won't fit on this one. I am a die hard window seat flyer, and every single row in this plane has a badly misaligned window. My neck had to be cranked sideways just to catch a glimpse of outside. I like the CRJ planes themselves but AC did a terrible job of seat positioning on this one.

This airplane and business class layout is new and looks great at the first glance. The service, the food and inflight entertainment are excellent. However this layout is not optimal to my opinion. All seats have angle which doesn’t feel comfortable during take-off and landing or during turbulence. Further the angle makes it difficult to look out of the window. For the middle seats the angle makes it almost impossible to communicate with your neighbour. However, the biggest problem is the sleeping space. The table is too low making it hard to sleep on your side. The only optimal sleeping position is on your back.

Flight from Sydney to Vancouver in B787-9 Business Class. Window seat in herringbone layout offered good privacy and space. Comfortable cabin let down by only one small toilet in front for whole cabin! Seat very comfortable but did not lie completely flat when extended, but plenty of legroom. Good visibility through two windows which could be darkened electronically to increase illumination of large TV screen - nice. Wide movie selection but limited new releases. Very good wine selection but, sadly, food disappointing and well below standard for premium class. Entree tasty but main course, lamb, mainly mashed potato and gravy with a few peas, all served on plastic plates and plastic tray! Desert was a choice of three small tarts or a cheese plate - nice - but with only two, pre-sealed, crackers as an accompaniment! Breakfast offering included very tasty muesli and fresh fruit followed by an equally tasty omelet, but once again on a tray and plastic dishes. The croissant, cold and sealed in cellophane, had the consistency of a house-brick and was inedible. Butter was a small cube pre-wrapped in foil as purchased in a supermarket. Yipes! Whatever happened to restaurant quality of yesteryear? Cabin staff very attentive and friendly except for head honcho who was polite, professional, cold and aloof. Overall, a comfortable but not outstanding flight spoiled by the food offering.

Daytime flight after 1 drink B service and meal turned lights off and closed blinds … not really appropriate for day time flight never saw the crew again until served snack

Premium economy seat. Seat reclines further and is reasonably comfortable for an 8 hour flight. Washroom is right there and in a small 21 seat section there are no line ups.

The plane was so nice and comfortable, the flight was so smooth, so new and very clean. Had a wheel chair with help to the gate and boarding. Very pleased all in all. Will definitely use again. You could hear the pilot very clear.

Airplane is really small… Carry on don’t fit overhead… width of the seat are really tight fit for two normal size men. leg room is ok and entertainment is deficient and slow. Should be remove from the fleet for flights over 1h30 mins
