    I’m returning to Amsterdam from Toronto with Air Canada this time. It’s my first time flying with them in just over 10 years. There are a lot of noticable changes.

    To: Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, Kingdom of The Netherlands.
    Flight Number: AC826
    Aircraft Type: Boeing B787-8
    Registration: C-GHPY
    Flight Time: 06:52

    Thanks for the great video. Glad to know AC is that good. That celeriac salad looked very good. I love celeriac. First time I had was on JAL NRT to ANC First Class. I just never see it anywhere in American unless I buy it at the store and prepare it myself. It did look a tad dry.

    • @TheLayoverAviation
      @TheLayoverAviation  2 роки тому

      Mr. Clooney, nice seeing you around again!
      Yes, celeriac salad is not a very common thing to see.
      Jal NRT to ANC, wow! Was it the aircraft with the sleeping beds? I was just recently told by someone that Jal had that.
      In Dutch cuisine celeriac is widely used. If you find some, make a “Dutch Pea Soup”. It has lots of celeriac and is to die for!

    At 2:33 you give details about the IFE in 18A. I noticed a screen mounted on the bulkhead in front 18C

    As I see 18A the IFE pops up from in between seats , but C is an aisle.

      Thanks!
      Well, it might seem so, but no! It would take me a scientist to explain this.
      We’re kind of riding this “wave” of wind which pushes us, so airspeed wise we’re just going around 900km/h. The ground speed is indeed close to the speed of sound. But not the plane. Tough to explain!
