Air Canada increases flights to Europe
Air Canada is offering new services to Europe that add connectivity and increase frequency for travelers.
The airline has added flights from Montreal to Toulouse, France; from Montreal to Copenhagen; and from Toronto to Brussels.
These new flights are in addition to Air Canada’s increased flight frequencies to popular European destinations such as Barcelona, Madrid, Frankfurt, London Heathrow and Edinburgh.
“We continue to pursue our disciplined approach of expanding our global network in response to anticipated demand,” said Mark Galardo, Senior Vice President Network Planning and Revenue Management at Air Canada. “We are especially pleased to be adding three new strategic routes to Europe, resuming important services to Japan, and increasing frequencies to key international destinations for summer 2023.”
Air Canada’s new route to Toulouse will be the only year-round service between North America and southwestern France, and the flights to Brussels will offer easy onward connections throughout Europe and Africa.
The airline’s new Montreal-Copenhagen route compliments its Toronto-Copenhagen route, which is increasing in frequency over the summer. Air Canada will boost flights from three times per week to five times per week.
Travelers will fly in comfort with three classes of service onboard the airline’s widebody aircraft, which serves international destinations. This includes Air Canada’s Signature Class with lie-flat pods.
These widebody planes also feature Premium Economy seats with larger seats and additional legroom as well as premium services. Economy features complimentary chef-inspired and designed meals, wines and beverages.
No matter what class of service travelers book, travelers have inflight entertainment, screens at every seat, hours of complimentary onboard entertainment and the opportunity to purchase Wi-Fi connectivity.
Travelers in the U.S. can take advantage of easy connections through Canada to their final destinations in Europe with same-terminal connections, shorter elapsed time and customs pre-clearance.
