Air Canada has launched new services for seven more American cities fortifying its Toronto hub and strengthening its position as transborder carrier with the daily flights between Canada and the US of any airline.
This spring, Air Canada will offer new daily service between Toronto and seven more American cities including Orange County (Santa Ana) and San Diego, California, Portland, Oregon, Memphis, Tennessee, Cincinnati, Ohio, Portland, Maine, and Syracuse, New York.
According to the airline firm, flights will be non-stop and conveniently timed for connections with flights on its domestic and international network.
The company is also adding four new international destinations from Toronto this summer. It will begin flying to Athens, Barcelona, and Copenhagen, and offer same-plane, direct service to Brussels through Montreal.
With the launch of these seven routes, the airline firm, along with Air Canada Jazz and its Tier three partners, offers up to 142 scheduled flights each day to 51 US destinations from its hub in Toronto.
In total, this summer Air Canada will operate up to 232 flights per day between six points in Canada and 55 destinations in the US. In addition, this summer Air Canada will also serve 30 domestic and 45 international destinations from Toronto.
Ben Smith, executive vice president and chief commercial officer at Air Canada, said: “This additional service to seven more US cities further solidifies Air Canada's position as the leading transborder carrier between Canada and the US and the number one foreign carrier flying to the US - offering the most flights per day to more destinations in the US than any other international airline.”
Is this a sensible move from Air Canada?
