Hey Lisa
Me and Libby are flying to Vancouver on March 5th!
The flight doesn't say it stops in Calgary but we've had unexpected stopovers before.
What time is your flight? and where are you flying from?
Have a safe flight!

Hiya
(sorry for the late reply - just been looking at threads on shipping companies)
Yes that is the same flight we are on - Thomas Cook
Good to know we are stopping in Calgary - won't be such a suprise when we start to land a couple of hours early!
All this is assuming our visa arrives on time - if not i'll message you so you can claim our seats - we've paid for an upgrade and will be gutted if we have to miss our flight!
Hope you have a safe flight - if our visa arrives we'll be the couple looking very stressed and carrying far to many red suitcases for our luggage allowance!

Re: March 5th
Ha ha! that is sooo funny.
We are entering on a TWP too - settling in Nanaimo on Vancouver island.
Libby has auburn hair and i've got short brown hair. We'll be the ones wearing 4 layers of clothing to avoid the overweight luggage allowance charge!
If you see 2 empty seats you can assume our letter hasn't arrived and we've had to delay our trip (a long story involving us stupidly booking our flight in October as an instant fare, then having problems with my medical, and nursing registration. If all goes to plan our approval letter should arrive on the 1st or 2nd March!)
We'll look out for you at Gatwick!

Hiya
Still no news on the visa letter . . .
However our house was packed into the back of a Pickfords lorry on Tuesday so at least our furniture will make it to Canada even if we don't!!
Fingers crossed we'll be joining it - i'll let you know.
Is everything going ok for you guys?

...... mind you, we signed/exchanged contracts on our house 6 days before we left the UK & only found our rental the night before we left!! 
Good luck
hopefully the weather will hold out for you, it's 11c & sunny today.
