Some examples include San Antonio, Indianapolis, Columbus OH, etc.
I got excited for Calgary when I read the first line of this article. Unfortunately, I was soon disappointed as I read on. The only thing that's new is an equipment change on the YYC flights to LHR and FRA, from A333 to B77W. I would hardly describe this as a "major expansion of international services."
Well...it IS major when you take into account ALL the changes as cited in the article!
Major, for Toronto and Montréal. Not so major for Calgary and Vancouver.
Well..they were referring to the entire AC network...Calgary being small potatoes! YUL also!! We all know where the centre of the Universe is, right? ;-)
Ha! Indeed.
Notice the total absence of Halifax services.
