AC 065 Toronto - Seoul

Date : Sept. 16, 2005
AC 065 Toronto - Seoul Incheon
Flight Load : about 25-30%
Flight Time : about 14 hours from gate to gate

The Toronto - Seoul direct flight is a new route for Air Canada. However, there were surprisingly few passengers, which was great because there were plenty of rows of empty seats to sleep on. Even the flight attendants were a bit surprised of the light loading as we pulled out of Pearson. I was moving around the plane throughout the flight to get the views from both the left and right sides of the plane.

@ Pearson







It was a cloudy and rainy day in Toronto.



Air Canada's international flights leave from the infield terminal and passengers have to ride buses from Terminal 1.

Leaving the gate :





This is another A340 bound for Hong Kong leaving at around the same time.



























The plane headed straight north towards Hudson Bay.

I've never had a good experience with catering from Toronto. This meal tasted quite bad.







The plane then veered west across the northern Canadian Arctic :

The 2nd meal of the flight was a snack.





The descent into Seoul was extremely turbulent. There were low clouds over Seoul and we were still in the clouds just seconds before touching down at Incheon. At one point the turbulence was so bad we bounced up and down quite violently and the FAs had to take cover and buckle up.





















Welcome to Seoul.









Overall Thoughts
AC's service was decent. It wasn't anything spectacular but the crew took good care of the few passengers on board. There was a major difference in the crew composition though. I don't think any one of the Korean-speaking crew was over 30 whereas I doubt any of the English-speaking crew was under 35.

唔怪之得早前唔見架904飛o黎香港啦，
原來去o左Toronto果邊，不過，架機始終
未有PTV，實在令人覺得坐長途機會比較
悶吧。

冇錯，加航好多空中服務員年紀都唔細！

哈哈!有個朋友曾經同我講過
空中服務員年紀較大是加航(AC)的特色

去多倫多咁耐機無PTV,真係超悶...
