Flipside: United runs non-stop on the route (though apparently on a crappy CRJ-200 which I hate)

but non-stop.

Responses:

Yes, if I book return on Friday, I can get a non-stop ... but if I want to stay part of saturday, no non-stops available :/ -- nm - Beryllium Aug 9, 22:58 1
- (The friday nonstop leaves at like 6pm or something, so it would eat into the workday. And the day in general.) -- nm - Beryllium Aug 9, 22:59
And there's this: Delta does not fly to YYJ. -- nm - ty97 Aug 9, 22:56 13
- (though they probably codeshare some Westjet route to YYJ) -- nm - ty97 Aug 9, 22:57
- Yeah, Alaska handles the Delta brand. I like Alaska. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 9, 22:57 11
  - Delta and Alaska only codeshare some markets, I'm not seeing SEA-YYJ in that. - ty97 Aug 9, 23:00 10
    - hmm -- nm - Beryllium Aug 9, 23:02 9
      - Delta's codesharing on Alaska has always been selective, but it's also drawn down a little as Delta builds up its Seattle hub - ty97 Aug 9, 23:03 8
        
        the booking platform is saying Delta YYJ->SEA->SFO, Alaska SFO->SEA->YYJ -- nm - Beryllium Aug 9, 23:04 7
        
        (But it's also saying Delta flight is "operated by Alaska Airlines") -- nm - Beryllium Aug 9, 23:05 6
        
        If the booking engine will do that, excellent. - ty97 Aug 9, 23:06 5
        
        There: Dash 8-400 + Embraer E-175 (whut?), back: 737 + Dash 8-400 -- nm - Beryllium Aug 9, 23:08 4
        
        E-175 is a nice sized regional jet. Probably seats around 70 people (depending on config) - ty97 Aug 9, 23:10 3
        
        Sounds dreamy. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 9, 23:12
        
        (I'll actually be on a Delta E-175 in a few weeks) -- nm - ty97 Aug 9, 23:11 1
