Longest sector flown by an E190?
Aside from YYZ-SEA, what's the longest trip AC flies using the E190?
Apparently my recent trip was ~18321.

That's the standard aircraft for YYZ-SEA -- 5h26m gate to gate and 2060 miles according to great circle, so not the longest but definitely up there. I'm a huge fan of the E190 on short flights but I find this one to be too long. In Y, midway through the flight there is a huge queue down the aisle for the one tiny lav and the J cabin isn't anything special either. I usually take the short flight up to YVR and hop on a larger aircraft. Good trade between time and comfort IMO, if I am not in a rush.

LOL. I've seen this bug so often that sometimes when waking up hungover I have to stop myself because I think I've gotten on the wrong plane

There must have been a couple of mid-air refuels. I'm not sure though, since I slept most of the flight and only noticed the distance travelled as we were on final approach, I did have to do a couple of double takes though.

AC doesn't fly YVR-EWR with an E190. It's a 319 on that route.
YYC-EWR is an E190.
I've seen an E190 used on YVR-YUL to help recover from a downguage.
YYZ-SEA is probably the longest regularly scheduled E190 route.

Take with the usual Wikipedia grain of salt but it says AC looks to fly the longest regularly scheduled E90 flight YYZ-SEA

I had a September YYC-YYZ flight that was the same. I have a very blurry photo showing distance travelled of 64,076 with 13 miles to go. It was also on an E190.
