Air Canada 787-9 Dreamliner Take Off Toronto Pearson

Air Canada 787-9 departure out of Toronto Pearson bound for London Heathrow.

The flight was late leaving as, once we'd all boarded, skipper told us there was an issue with one of the sensors on-board which would've taken us under the minimum equipment list.

Meant we were 2 hours late leaving Toronto and, when we arrived into LHR, we had no gate and had to deplane at a remote stand to board buses. Still, gave me a great view of the big-ass engines on the brand new Dreamliner (had only been with AC for 2 months when I flew) and time on the LHR tarmac.

Cabin crew came round with a drink and a bag of pretzels during the delay, but that was about all that was great about them. During the flight they didn't tell us the in-flight ordering system for duty free hadn't been activated and didn't tell us how to actually order duty free, only came round a couple of times with drinks, and the food was bordering on inedible.

Had really high hopes for the airline before leaving the UK. Safe to say I won't be flying with them again...
