[4K] 11 HOURS WAITING FOR A GATE! VANCOUVER AIRPORT MELTDOWN | Air Canada AC1055 | Boeing 737-8 MAX

On Monday 20th December 2022, Vancouver Airport experienced a severe weather event, the likes of which have not been seen for several years. Heavy snowfall led to a complete ground stop of all arriving and departing flights, but not before a number of inbound flights had already touched down. The overwhelmed airport authority, and its subsequent operational meltdown, led to passengers being stranded on aircraft for over 11 hours - unable to access a gate or airstairs. This video is an account of Air Canada flight AC1055, from Phoenix to Vancouver. Snow the previous day had already led to a 5hr departure delay from Phoenix, giving us a touchdown time of 10:07pm in Vancouver. It wasn't until 8:47am the next day that we finally were able to deplane through gate E73. While severe weather cannot be blamed on anything but nature itself, preparation and contingency plans should have been in place to avoid a situation like this. At the time of publishing, Vancouver Airport Authority has committed to a review of its systems and procedures with the help of an external auditor. I would like to thank the Air Canada crew of AC1055, along with the ground staff and maintenance staff who worked through treacherous conditions throughout the night. Our crew had a block time of over 20hours, and yet continued to uphold themselves professionally and diligently while keeping the passengers warm and comfortable. Canada's recently ammended Tarmac Delay legislation provides for $1,000 compensation to passengers for delays over 10 hours. While this delay could be argued to be for 'safety reasons', Air Canada swiftly distributed credit to passengers within days of the incident.
