High-Speed Rail (HSR) - Toronto/Pearson/Kitchener/London

[danbrotherston]

Fair enough, to me it’s kinda crazy to be flying such small aircraft on such a high demand route. But I’m not an airline CEO so they must have a good reason.  But this is why the claims of Pearson being full seem so silly. You could create 18 new runway slots simply by flying larger aircraft on two destinations.

Passengers like frequency. Just like on GO trains. 😊 The A220s do have very good fuel efficiency, A319s not so much. 737-8 should be good, too. Embraers, A321 and A330 use older engine tech so not as good.

Yeah but that’s a lot of frequency for a multi-day trip. I don’t think it’s worth building a billion dollar airport to avoid going from a 60 to a 90 minute frequency off peak.

In any case, we should have a high speed train and then free up all 34 landing slots.
