Air Canada Boeing 777-200LR Vancouver (YVR) 🇨🇦 to Sydney (SYD) 🇦🇺 {Full Flight Report}

This was the second leg of our journey to Australia. This, therefore, was a connection flight out of Vancouver, British Columbia. We arrived at the airport at night. The airport was very quiet and we were limited in terms of time and the area of the airport to film. Therefore some plane spotting was not able to be done. However, you will get the sense of a late connection flight and the anticipation of jumping on a flight that will cross the north and south pacific. It is a dark night and this does affect the filming out of a plane window. However I get some great shots of our exit out of Vancouver and great shots of Honolulu all lit up at night. We get a beautiful sunrise following us as we approach the continent of Australia and pass various islands thru the south Pacific.

We are flying Air Canada's Boeing 777-200LR straight to Sydney on this flight. This is a great flight that Air Canada provides as there is no layover in Honolulu or the south Pacific islands. The flight distance is 12,487km. We flew this distance in just over 15 hours. Of course this jet can easily cover the distance in one shot without even being full of fuel. Our particular seats were very comfortable for economy seats which you should expect of an airline flying you this far. On this particular flight we did experience light turbulence for about 80% of the trip even though the skies were fairly clear the entire way.

This is an amazing craft and their service speaks to their many awards they have received in the airline industry.

Vancouver International Airport is a beautiful airport. It is an international airport located on Sea Island in Richmond, British Columbia, serving the city of Vancouver and the Lower Mainland region. It is located 12 km from Downtown Vancouver. YVR welcomes and bids farewell to millions of passengers every year with award-winning art and architecture that captures British Columbia’s diverse landscapes and cultures. I wish that I had been able to capture more of it. YVR has one of the most dynamic airport wildlife management programs in the world. It is truly a hub that connects people to the world.
