Superb, or should I be getting in the habit of saying 'Awesome news, for sure'!!
So does that pretty much conclude us Jan & Feb'ers?
BTW, I have the 1 way flights booked for 21st July, booked through Opodo via Air Transat and flying with Thomas Cook, would you believe the flights were nearly £800 cheaper than using Canadian Affair (for exactly the same flight), absolute madness!
Just need a job and somewhere to live and we'll be laughing!

Thank you for all of your good wishes 
We're really excited, but there is sooo much to do, it's quite scary.
@stokesey - STC has done her medicals, awaiting PPR.

If you can upgrade to the marginally better seat you will:
a) be able to breath
b) want to eat the food
c) get free drinks
d) get some sleep hopefully
e) your knees wont touch the seat (unless you are really tall)
These are also flights that don't have the fancy: 'choose what to watch when you want' tv's.
I had to go to work once I got off the plane so i was in a stonking bad mood when I discovered that the seats & aisles were really narrow (the middle seat is EVEN smaller) making it difficult to sleep / be comfortable and that we had to land in Edmonton first before getting to Vancouver (my own fault for not paying attention to the longer flight time).
I paid an extra 50 quid while on the plane and took the last upgraded seat (not sure what it is referred to).
That said - the savings where worth every penny- but you do notice the difference after being on other airlines.
Oh and you can choose your seats 5 days before you fly... best of luck!

hey! I just got off my 'air transat / canada affair / thomas cook' one way flight. I assume you are on the same plane model as I was - pretty certain its an A330.
