Not sure, maybe a refuel? It'll be on a A330 Airbus...

Birmingham to Vancouver your looking around 9 hours.
The A330 can make it Non-Stop so you should'nt have to re-fuel anywhere.
Who you flying with?

well the sim is accurate, but it depends on the pilot's discretion with airspeed, air traffic etc. If you could tell me the day you were flying, i could recreate the air traffic to real life schedules, that might change the time up/down by as much as 20-30minutes.
