Flown on Air Canada a number of times through YVR. Either when I am connecting to and/or from a…read moreconnecting domestic flight or a flight from Asia. In YVR, you are able to clear US customs, so you do not need to go through the process when you arrive back in the US. This can be a good or bad thing, depending on how much connecting time you have. It was an issue when I had a delayed domestic flight that arrived with less than 20 minutes before the last flight back to Seattle was about to leave. Fortunately, I was able to catch it despite having to go through customs. Recently, I took a flight from Bangkok to Vancouver on Air Canada, which is the only airline flying from Thailand to North America. The flight left in the morning so I had to get to the airport really early. Check-in was fine and not crowded as the airline only operated this flight. The in-flight experience was so-so. The Dreamliner economy seats were uncomfortable and I felt miserable for much of the 13-hour flight as I was recovering from a trip illness. The in-flight entertainment and meal were decent. I had a basil chicken meal, which seemed to be catered by Bangkok Air Catering, which provided me my last tastes of Thailand. My connecting flight back to Seattle was pretty unpleasant as I was very tired and sat all the way in the back of the plane. Fortunately, the flight was only an hour long. Not a big fan of flying on Air Canada. I will say they are fine for the most part when there are no issues. It is just when there is a flight delay which is often or when you are feeling unwell, that the flight experience can be pretty unpleasant.

We had booked first class and we were a codeshare with Delta meaning our booking was through delta. So, WestJet gave our seats away because we were late getting to the gate through no fault of our own. When we got to the gate, we were told sorry but we can't accommodate you in first class. The word accommodate meaning that they couldn't do us what they considered a courtesy or a favor. We paid and we were not given the service we paid for. This has happened to me in reverse on Delta where I was reseated due to the same issue. That is what should happen. However, I was not a WestJet FF and therefore they put my wife and me in economy. The real issue is I had to call and get a refund. It was all in all made to be my hassle. Like I said, courteous but bare minimum to actually provide helpful remediation. I guess customer service means something different to WestJet.

We paid extra for the TV cost us $800 and PAL workers inspected the TV and everything was ok. Anyway when we arrived in the Philippines, we are careful to handle it with care and transfer the television carefully. We unbox the TV after a week. The TV was mishandled and it's broken. Immediately I emailed Baggage Claim and they asked me to provide the proof we have for the TV. This is the last email to PAL BAGGAGE CLAIM...( All the stickers from the TV box it was submitted already to you these are the only stickers YVR provided to the tv box separated by boarding pass and the sticker for the weight of the tv. We took pictures of the box back to back and side by side. The proof we have is very strong such as a receipt, boarding pass, and stickers for the TV. The tv was inspected by the people in the Vancouver airport and it was ok and with no problem. Why you kept on asking me about the tag? The PAL worker checking the luggage is the one who assisted us measured and weight the TV and she asked my husband to bring the TV to the other side for inspection. After that inspected was successful and they proceed to check in the TV for oversize luggage. maybe the YVR PAL worker forgot to put the tag for the TV. I don't know anymore because that their job to complete the task before they proceed with the procedure for the TV. As passengers, we relay to the check-in workers because is not under our control what to do and we follow the procedures and protocols.) Disappointed and frustrated PAL customer #philippinesairlines

It's been a while that I flew JL on the route from YVR to Narita or vice versa respectively,…read morehowever due to recent changes in their equipment I think it warrants an informative review. JAL is a oneWorld carrier and operates a small Lounge in YVR. It is by far nothing to write home about so don't arrive earlier at the airport than necessary. The staff has always been nice to me, in the days that they sent the 747 to YVR I always got 'upgraded' to the older First Class Cabin where they provided Business Class Service. However since the Business Class had the new Generation Shell seats that's not always an upgrade so beware. Right now JAL flies an older Version, better said THE oldest Version of it's Business Class to Vancouver. An old recliner (craddle) seat on the 777/767. It is important that you know what is awaiting you. This is a very old and angled product. The service is still good and amenities are available in the bathroom but the product is a disgrace for something that's being called and sold as Business Class in post 1995. This is not the Standard of all JAL flights and you will find that for example ex Los Angeles LAX and San Francisco SFO they use their newest equipment including the fabulous First Class Suites. Should you consider booking JAL for your trip either go through these gateways or book alternatively Cathay Pacific ex Vancouver if you have a final destination elsewhere than Japan. Cheers S.

* I am from North America - I must be contagious!!!!! *…read more Continuing on with the trip last night took Japan Airlines from Seoul to Kansai, Japan. JAL had a very small lounge in Seoul, but it had all the touches of Japan with Pocari Sweat, Asahi Beer, those automatic hand dryers you usually find in Japan, Panasonic massage chairs (although all the buttons were in Korean which made it hard to figure out all the options!), NHK playing on the Japanese made flat screen TV, etc. A bit short on food options for substantial food though (Dunkin donuts sliced in half were the primary food stuff - WTF?!?!?!). So I wandered over to another lounge. The One World alliance also gave access to the Cathay Pacific Lounge which is a 5 minute walk away and had the typical layout of a Cathay lounge as well as the trimmings. It was a larger space, and made for a relaxing meal. Had some zaru soba. The soba were more of the Korean type, but it was a filling snack. They also had lasanga, salads, cookies, etc. A slightly larger offering. So if flying JAL out of Seoul I would definitely recommend the Cathay lounge as the lounge of choice. On the flight itself JAL was using one of its older 767s for the short flight. The business class seats are kind of narrow compared to what you might find on the newer aircraft. But I think they just use these for regional flights. The flight attendants were extremely professional, very helpful, and made for a pleasant flight. On the short flight they offered a rather extensive bento box that had literally 15 different items in very small tasting portions. The highlight was the saikyo miso kare. But several of the others were tasty as well. Japan has a quarantine form that you had to fill out asking if you had any contact with anyone from the US, Canada or Mexico for the past 10 days. Now if I want to get into an Engrish argument they technically were asking if you spent a complete 10 days with anyone from there, or if you yourself had been there for 10 days. Since I was just in Korea I could have said no technically - but since they threaten up to 6 months in jail for lying on the form I figured I would go with the spirit of it all and just say Yes. Certainly got a funny look from the quarantine officer that was not expecting to see any yes forms on the flight from Korea! She then handed me a mask and encouraged me to wear it. Ugh. Transfer over to the Haruka express train to Kyoto was smooth and painless. The kind Japan Rail staff suggested buying a 1 day pass instead of paying full fare, saving about $10. Thank you. Had not known that trick before and all you have to do is show a ticket receipt that you are leaving Japan. Nice! Today - off to Biwa Lake and some more food!

Another thing their utensils is not plastic compared to others; they give spoon, fork, knife and chopsticks.

I also had enough points to have us fly first class on all 4 flights. Alaska gate service was consistently helpful and friendly, while there was some variation with inflight service. We were a little surprised with 3 of the flights in that it really wasn't a first class experience. It wasn't bad either, just meh. The stellar exception was the Stewardess on the YVR - SEA leg. She was fun, welcoming, and fun, all within this very short period of time. And we were also served! It's important to be seen, and this Alaska staff person went beyond that, for which we are very appreciative.
