AIR CANADA ADDS SIX NEW TRANSBORDER ROUTES
Air Canada announced yesterday it will launch six new non-stop US services beginning Spring 2017. Three of the routes, Toronto to San Antonio, Memphis and Savannah, bring new destinations into the airline's US network. The carrier also added Montreal to Dallas-Fort Worth, Vancouver to Denver and converted the Vancouver-Phoenix route to a year-round operation.
"These new routes will further solidify Air Canada's position as the leader in the Canada-US transborder market and as the foreign carrier flying the most to the US Apart from linking Canada's largest cities with popular US destinations, these new and expanded services will also serve to channel traffic to and from our domestic and international networks through our major airport hubs, contributing to the success of our ongoing global expansion," said Benjamin Smith, president, Passenger Airlines, at Air Canada.
The new non-stop services will be operated by Air Canada Express starting in May 2017 and continue year-round, except for Toronto-Savannah, which will operate on a summer seasonal basis.
All routes will be operated with regional jet aircraft with flights timed to connect with Air Canada's domestic and international schedule..
