Flying the old-fashioned way

Today's trip from Calgary to Toronto so popular that Air Canada "changed the equipment" -- swapped in a bigger plane. Bigger by 50% actually -- they replaced the Airbus 320 with a Boeing 767-200. I looked up the fin number (618) on Air Canada's site to learn a bit more about the plane, and turns out that it's one of the oldest 767s in the fleet!

Here it is when it first joined Air Canada: (check out the ancient livery!)


...and here it is today: (two paint jobs and 18+ years later)


I also learned that it doesn't have the upgraded Air Canada interior, with personal TVs and power plugs for everyone. In fact, it has zero power plugs anywhere (rare these days except on WestJet) and probably has the awful old projection TV at the front of the cabin and that's it. Ugh.

I plan to charge up my laptop battery and hopefully have enough juice to keep myself entertained for four hours.

Pray for Mojo.
