As airports go we thought it was very nice, clean and bright and well sign posted. Are you sure that there is not any earlier connection?

IF times are GMT thats a 2 hr flight.

Were do you get 10hrs?

Surely it is a shorter time than even 9 hrs. London/Vancouver is only 10hrs

No, I'm afraid not. Nevermind though, I spent 6 hours in Hong Kong 7 years ago, and a few hours in Kuala Lumpor when I was 6 years old. Now that was a scary experience.

Toronto will be a walk in the park compared. At least they speak English.

Good idea. I'll probably buy one for the flight over.

Calgary to Vancouver is a one hour flight.

OR
9+1=10.

Now i'm confusing myself. I was talking about Toronto in the earlier posts and not Mandi Moo's Calgary flight. Somebody earlier suggested it was approx 8 hrs to Toronto.

I didn't book a seat. I think they give you them when you get your boarding pass.
