Air Canada reviews please?

Question

My daughter and I are due to fly to Canada this year, and are using Air Canada for the first time. Are they any good? Are their meals decent? Whats the in flight entertainment like?

Answer 1

I flew Air Canada this summer.  Nothing about it was very memorable, but the meal was included (unlike most American airlines, where you have to pay if you wanna eat -__-)  There were movies you could watch from the tv on the back of the chair in front of you.  I flew economy.

Answer 2

You will be just fine!

Answer 3

Air Canada is neglected a lot because it is compared to European Airlines and Asian Airlines. It was rated the best airline in North America. I had no problems with them. They're very safe and are very friendly. Seats differ in comfort but are a little better than average airlines. Food used to be free, but since the high price of gas, they had to charge money for that so don't be discouraged. (Your probably having problems with gas in your car if you have one). The entertainment I would say is decent which is why I always bring my favorite things to do on a plane like sleeping to my favorite music, reading books or magazines, draw or write, solving puzzles like crosswords, word searches or SuDuKu's, playing card games like solitaire (bring your own cards), a game-boy, D.S. or PSP and sleep. Sleeping is one of the best because time will fly and you will get rid of jet lag (WHICH IS SOOO ANNOYING).

Hope this helped

Answer 4

really nice!!

Answer 5

I used Air Canada a few times and it is a very nice airline. But just this year when I was going to Barbados from Toronto and going back, you do have to pay for meals now but the drinks are free unless you want alcohol. Meals should be decent. Only good when you pay for the meal, you get a selection of which you want to eat. I remember seeing a woman who brought a sandwich on the plane as she did not want to buy on the plane. I always flew economy.

Flight entertainment is good. They would show some advertisements. A movie or two depending on length of flight time.
