Route: ADZ - YUL, 9 Feb 2006
Ticket price: 1720 $ (240 $ extra round trip in an all-inclusive package)
Flight duration: 5h 00m
Class: business
Aircraft: Airbus 320
Meal: Lunch - Before takeoff, we were served a Champagne and juice drink.

The starter is a salad of tomatoes slices with feta cheese (picture 1).

Then, for main course, we had three choices: Thai chicken saute, beef saute or pasta meal. I chose the chicken stew. I chose the chicken meal (picture 2). For red wine, we had choice between a 2001 Merlot or 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon. As for the white, options were between a 2001 Chardonnay or white Sauvignon.

Dessert was a profiterole (picture 2) and we were served unlimited digestives. It was either Grand Marnier, Bailey's or Bacardi rhum. As per recommendation by my fellow travellers, I've decided to mix Grand Marnier and Bailey's (picture 3).

Beers like Heineken and wine was offered during all the flight, even after lunch.

Drink: Champagne, beers, wine, strong liquors, juices, soft drinks
Comments: -Champagne and orange juice was nice.
-Starter was just o.k. Portion could be better.
-The main course was acceptable, compared to economy class (they had a cold Subway submarine), but could be better. Main course was comparing to a high-end airline economy class, but quite not like a real business class.
-Choice and quality of wine was very nice. It was really above average wine.
-Service was very attentive. Flight attendants were striving to give the best service they could and it was showing. They were proactive. For instance, they were coming at your seat asking if you would like to eat something more or get another drink. That was very professional and compared to most other airlines business class.

Meal: Hot Lunch
Penne in Marinara Sauce au gratin. Mixed bean salad and lemon cake.
Comments: This is the vegetarian alternative to the chicken. Air Transat caters 10% of it's economy class caseroles as vegetarian . This is done only done out of the Western stations (YVR, YYC and YEG) due to the high amount of vegetarians in western Canada. If heated properly I give this meal a 7. If overcooked it's no more than a 4.

Comments: As of June 1st, 2004 Air Transat has re-designed it's Club Transat service. The new service has significantly improved upon the quality and quantity of meals served in this cabin. The meal service starts with an appetizer. It follows with your choice of breads and a selection of 4 wines to accompany your meal. After the appetizer your main course of which you have 4 to choose from is served. Once again accompanied by a wine and bread selection. Rounded off with coffee and tea.

Thai Chicken with rice and vegetables
Drink: Red Wine
Comments: The Food was very good and tasty, the tomato and boconccini cheese was great, the chicken was tender and the rice was perfectly cooked, the desert was the best, white chocolate profiterole. The service was very attentive and the crew was very efficient. The only thing is the space in business class seat was very thigh, I could not get up without having my neighbor also get up, and if the person in front was reclining her seat the space was very cramp. seating configuration was 2-3-2, other airline on the same aircraft in business class have 2-2-2. The seat pitch was not up to business travelers.

Meal: Snack
1 - blueberry yogurt

4 - (not shown) fresh toasted croissant
Drink: Champagne.
Comments: Fruit was ripe and flavourful, omelet was great with real cheese, croissant was delicious. Potatoes tasty, but a little bit salty. Salsa was the weakest part of the meal - not horrible, but definitely not wonderful. Club Class is definitely worth the extra $225 on the basic ticket - great leather seats with a decent amount of legroom, and fantastic service.

Meal: Snack - Ham & Cheese Sandwich, Mini "Coffee Crisp" Chocolate Bar
Drink: Orange Juice, Coffee
Comments: They called it a snack but it was served at lunch hour. The sandwich was OK but a tad dry. The best part of the whole thing was the choclate bar. They had a beverage service with non-alcoholic drinks and pretsels right afterwards. Alcholic beverages were available at extra charge. It's not great but acceptable for a short hop flight.
