Toronto over Thanksgiving
So myself and nwafan20 are going to be taking a trip up to Canada to YYZ for some spotting. We would like to know if anyone would like to join us. We also need some help on where to spot, we have found a site but is there any Public Transportation?
Dates:
Arrive, Nov. 25th at Night
Leave, Nov. 29th at Night

Hey guys, also a note, if any of you want to join us your more than welcome.
There seems to be a lack of reliable spotting information for YYZ.....

Toronto seems like a very decent airport for spotting. I transferred through there 4 times this summer but never had time to spot. They get a nice batch of aircraft visitors as well.
Stuart, are you flying LAN!?
I'd love to join you guys but I think I might be going down to Puerto Rico to visit family.

*BOOKED*
Decided to go through TOL to get on the Saab, and take the later flight to YYZ to get on the E-175. 2 new aircraft types for me, plus I have never been on a regional jet, so this is a prop regional and a ERJ. Should be fun.
Nov. 25th:
NW 3152, Mesaba Saab 340 Seat 3D
Depart TOL 5:00 PM
Arrive DTW 5:52 PM
NW 1814, Compass E-175 Seat 12A
Depart DTW 9:21 PM
Arrive YYZ 10:32 PM
Nov 29th:
NW 1503, Northwest DC-9-30 Seat 14A
Depart YYZ 4:30 PM
Arrive DTW 5:46 PM

Re: Toronto over Thanksgiving
Stuart! You should have used American mileage to fly on LAN!
Re: Toronto over Thanksgiving
Uh. You're skipping a Thanksgiving feast to go spotting?
Priorities, boys. Food and football then spotting!

They don't fly out on the 25th.
Re: Toronto over Thanksgiving
Have a great trip, and please provide details on the trip and spotting. I will, most likely, be visiting my cousins in Toronto over the Christmas break, and spotting is, as always, a must!
