What is interesting is that first class appears to be one 1-2-1 row at the front of the business class cabin. The Air India Boeing 777-300ER seats four passengers in first class, 35 passengers in business class, and 303 passengers in economy class. It’s pleasingly retro when so many airlines are axing first-class, introducing premium economy, and differentiating different sections of their main economy cabin. The Air India Boeing 777-300ER has an older style three-class configuration with first class, business class and economy. With Jet Airways off the route and Air India keen to expand and exploit opportunities from Jet Airways’ collapse, Air India has stepped into the breach and are sending their 777-300ER out over the North Pole and into Canada. There is a sizeable Indian diaspora in Toronto with India one of the largest single source of migrants to the Greater Toronto area. Jet Airways flew the route more recently but pulled out earlier this year when that airline was in its death throes.

Air India previously flew to Toronto but exited the route seven years ago.
