The pax reviews have been very good.
The CS-100 can depart from London City and fly nonstop to Montreal.

Boeing really screwed themselves on this one. Their trade complaint put the C-Series into the hands of Airbus.
Now, not only does Airbus have a superior product to anything that Boeing offers in the 110 to 150+ pax segment, but two more things:
1) Now they can produce the C-Series like hotcakes...TWO ASSEMBLY LINES in North America.
2) When the CS500 is released (which can happen quicker now with Airbus around), Boeing can wave good-by to MAX7 sales and might even have a hard time selling their MAX8...the CASM on a CS500 by comparison will reveal the MAX8 as the resurrected relic from the 1960s that it truly is...
