I've read a lot of good things about the Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge Frankfurt on various blogs. Some frequent flyers even say that it is one of the best Star Alliance Gold Lounges at Frankfurt Airport. We had time to visit the lounge before our flight to Dubai.
Thanks to an error fare, we flew Air Canada Business Class in the Boeing 777-300ER from Toronto to London in January 2017. In contrast to Business Class in the Airbus A330, the cabin in the Boeing 777-300ER is much more comfortable and meets the current standard. Find out in our trip report whether the new Executive Pod seats were also convincing.
Air Canada's Maple Leaf Lounge network comprises over 20 lounges worldwide. Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) is home to three of these, one serving domestic gates, one serving transborder (i.e. flights to the US) and one serving international gates. We visited the Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge Toronto International in January 2017 before flying to London with Air Canada.
Unlike Lufthansa, for example, Air Canada operates a proper Business Class on short and medium-haul routes. At the beginning of 2017, we flew from Seattle to Toronto and had plenty of time to relax in Air Canada Business Class in the Embraer ERJ-190.
Air Canada operates a total of three airport lounges at Toronto-Pearson Airport (YYZ) - one for international destinations, one for domestic destinations and one for flights to the USA. On our way to Seattle, we visited the Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge Toronto Transborder. You can find out how we spent our time there and what the lounge had to offer in the review.
Thanks to an error fare, we flew Air Canada Business Class on an Airbus A330-300 from Munich to Toronto. Despite complications during boarding and an outdated Business Class seat, Air Canada still managed to impress us with its service and the quality of the food. You can find out how satisfied we were overall in this trip report.
Frankfurt Airport is the largest airport in Germany in terms of annual passenger numbers. Frankfurt currently has four runways. From the spotter's point of view, planespotting Frankfurt is particularly interesting due to the extensive cargo traffic and the many international passenger airlines and the two parallel runways (07L/25R and 07R/25L).
