SYD - YVR AC check in.

[walter82]

Hi
I was wondering if AC offers web check in Australia for the Syd - YVR flight. Its Website appears to be written in Canadian and the best i can discern is that its not available.
If not is it best to check in early? Travelling economy given the choices in Feb are limited.
A supplementary question, how do they treat ski boot bags, can they be carry on or do I have to purchase excess for them.
Many thanks.

Website says that you can web check in but security regulations require that your bp be issued at the airport.

Sorry I couldn't resist, Canadian...tabarnac

We had free boot bags if skis / were treated as a piece of luggage.

Qantas could make a few bob if they came back to this route. I believe they have applied for a three day a week regular service.

Sure could they would only have to fly a couple of times a week.

Am on this service on Wednesday ... the last one in this January batch.

I've said it before ... if 2 star alliance airlines can do TPAC to YVR (AC and NZ), then surely one OneWorld can do it, especially now QF has code-share with WestJet.

If they did, I could give up AC (50,000km flown with them in J last year) and maybe get P1 on QFF.

Edit: Oops ... waaaay O/T sorry
