Routing


This was a short flight from Montreal to Toronto City, though there are lot's of cheaper alternatives for me to travel by this route instead of taking a plane, but it is always my long wish to take the Q400, so I finally decided this for my trip.

It was rather hot onboard, really not sure if every turboprop planes were like this as this is my first time getting on a turboprop jet

The seat was comfortable, a little bit old though, but generally was nice

A pack of chips with a cup of juice were served, there were lots of snack choices, like crackers and chocolate bar.

As the airport is located in the Toronto Island, a free ferry service is provided for users, connecting the airport and the city. It was really an interest ride, which the waiting time of the ferry was longer than the travelling time on it! The trip just took around 2 mins, I suppose this could be my shortest ferry trip ever.

Conclusion

Though this was a short flight with less than an hour time, but it was an interesting experience to get a try on a twin turboprop jet, as it is really rare, if not impossible to get seen it in my home airport. Generally the flight was pleasant, nice crews and services, it is worthy to enjoy such a memorable flight experience for me in a DH4.
