Welcome Back to another US-CAN series. This report consists of 4 legs to and from Central Florida. These trans-border reports are relatively short compared to my International trips and are easy point fill quota posts.
I booked AA through CLT and onto Toronto. This was another early departure in efforts to get back by the afternoon. I reached to MCO about 5AM for my scheduled flight at 6:25AM to CLT. Unfortunately due to engine problems the flight got cancelled 2 hours after the scheduled time of departure.
As a result, AA rebooked me via PHL onto Toronto. I was downgraded to economy on one of the legs as no premium product was offered. I had only flown out of PHL one time before on QRs A350 and was curious to know how it served as a connection airport.

Our a/c was parked at gate F33. Interesting how these jet bridges meet the plane.
Having only flown on the ERJ 145 one time before I forgot how low the aircraft sat on the ground.
AA 763 in from Budapest and NK A32N off to San Juan, PR.
A short takeoff roll set us on our way to Canada.
Cruise saw relatively clear skies until descent over Lake Ontario.
Toronto and Toronto island.
Our approach gave fantastic views of downtown Toronto and the lakeshore area.
A few banks later we were on final and touched down at YYZ. It was just before the rush hour so the airport was relatively quiet.
