Well said Ryan. A longer runway doesn't equal 747's and other jumbos magically showing up.

Right now YYC has only one scheduled 747 operator, Cargolux. Usually in 2x a week, from LAX and SEA before heading off to Luxembourg.

We do see the odd charter cargo flight with a 747, or the big Antonov 124.

We did have cargo 747 service from Korean and Asiana. Korean stopped a few years ago and Asiana was here last summer, but has not announced plans to be back this year.
