A Little Bit of History Passes
 
For those who are old enough to remember ....

After the Ansett collapse Qantas leased B763's from Air Canada to cover the extra flights. These aircraft are now being retired;

Boeing 767 -375 24307 259 C-FTCA Air Canada ferried 05jun20 YYZ-MZJ for storage (+ 25120/361 C-GLCA)
Boeing 767 -375 24575 311 C-FOCA Air Canada ferried 04jun20 YUL-MZJ for storage

Those Air Canada aircraft what routes did they operate on and how long did they fly for?

Initially flew international routes and then domestic.

Leased from October 2001 to Jan/Feb 2002, varied per aircraft.

I know that they were used a lot between Australia and New Zealand.
