Flights from St John's via Toronto yesterday would be helpful.

Based on the 'I barely missed my flight' tweet, I thiiiiiiiiiiink teams were on

AC693 YYT YYZ 1600 1800
AC033 YYZ YVR 2015 2204, or

AC697 YYT YYZ 1720 1920
AC129 YYZ YVR 2255 0056 (27)

with some sort of thing(s) designed to have the leg in daylight. It fits with last season having a 2 hour gap in flights and then making it up with a bus ride for the next day.

As an aside, would it kill TARCan to acknowledge WestJet? They could've easily had a nice 40 minute time gap and had a leg similar to TAR 28's premiere.

It appears they will have to depart Nelson/Castlegar through YCG Castlegar. Here r the departures for tomorrow. If next leg is International, they will go to Vancouver OR Calgary could be a connection to Toronto.

Most likely they either use Toronto/Montreal flight and connecting to Ottawa.

There are flights to Panama City via Toronto and Mexico City/Orlando, or there are some interesting routings from St. John's via Dublin and Amsterdam or Paris.  Via Europe seems silly and out of the way, but it's possible.  It actually comes up as a better connection than the one via Toronto.

Air Canada Rouge does have a direct flight between Toronto and Panama City.
