What we know about AC900

What flying YYZ to FLL takes

It is a medium-haul sector, long enough for a full meal service, short enough for narrowbodies. Air Canada needs a narrowbody on the longer variants, or a widebody where demand justifies it: at this distance the choice is usually about seat count rather than range.

How we verified this

The origin and destination on this page are the ones we verified for callsign ACA900 through adsbdb, not a schedule copied from elsewhere. We have logged it airborne on 10 days between 2026-09-20 and 2026-09-29. Timings are observations, not an official operational status: always confirm with the airline before travelling.

This page was published from our own tracking record rather than a third-party schedule feed, so it grows as we see the flight again. The seven-day log below is the raw version of the same evidence.

AC900 activity in the past 7 days

Our database contains 7 observations of AC900 across 7 UTC dates in this window, most recently 2026-09-29. Those records contain 5 distinct transponder addresses. The most frequently resolved route was YYZ-FLL (7 records).

The median recorded visibility was 368 minutes. That is time inside receiver coverage, not airborne duration or an on-time-performance measurement.

How much CO2 does AC900 emit?

Worked from the great-circle distance and the fuel burn measured for Boeing 787-8, the aircraft normally flying this route. Carbon dioxide only - see the method below.

Distance flown1,958 km
AircraftBoeing 787-8 Dreamliner
Fuel burn rate5.26 kg per km
Fuel burned10,303 kg
CO2, whole flight32.6 tonnes
Seats, typical layout242
Passengers carried201 at an 83% load factor
CO2 per passenger162 kg

Where that lands by cabin

The aircraft burns the same fuel whoever is aboard, so the cabins divide one total rather than each carrying their own. A seat's share is the floor it takes up, which is why an economy seat comes out below the 162 kg cabin average and a flat bed well above it.

Economy198 seats, 164 flown
118 kg CO2 per seat
Business36 seats, 30 flown
343 kg CO2 per seat
First7 seats, 6 flown
474 kg CO2 per seat

Taken whole, AC900 emits what 543 trees take back out of the air in a year. One economy seat on it accounts for about the same carbon dioxide as driving a petrol car 953 km, or 4,628 km of the same journey by train.

How this is worked out. Fuel burn is read from published measurements of this type, taken at sectors of 6,297 km and 8,612 km, all longer than this route, so the closest is held flat and the real figure is likely a little higher. It counts carbon dioxide only, and the cabin split assumes the layout typical of this size of aircraft. Read the full method, sources and caveats, or put AC900 against another flight.
