I flew from Denver to Montreal on an Air Canada non-stop, a flight that did not exist last time I came this way when a plane change was required in Toronto. The aircraft this time was an Airbus 319 with some of the best entertainment and electronics features I have ever seen in coach. Even in economy, each passenger has a personal touch-screen monitor with a choice of such entertainment as audio, television and on-demand movies (right). There's also an electrical outlet for plugging in a laptop!
Like many US domestic airlines, Air Canada has pared down its inflight service to he bare minimum. The complimentary non-alcoholic beverages are not even accompanied by pretzels or a couple of cookies. Air Canada sells blankets, but you can take them home with you, should you wish to. Meals are also for sale, but I didn't bother either.
The flight attendants were pleasant and frequently came up and down the aisle offering water. That, coupled with the customizable entertainment and a good book, made the time inflight pass fairly quickly.
Thank you for this picture - it was just what I needed to see because I was wondering how to plug in my laptop on aircanada.
