Joined Tiramisu for morning coffee! I walked around CRC and counted how many crew had phones on lanyards, at 10am there were 26 in the TV room, 6 in the coffee bar and 15 wandering around that I saw; by 11am there were a couple of dozen more chatting to BF. Over 50 crew on standby and only about half a dozen used in total. There were probably 30+ pilots hanging around as well. The YYZ was checking in and went with a full crew. Nowhere near a normal day but certainly one could not say that CRC was empty. The Ops team did say that it was busier than the preceeding days though.
Chatted to some of the volunteers in dayglo vests; some nice chaps from engineering who were manning the buses were big enough to deter anyone from harrassment!
