Air Canada is smoothing the route to Asia this summer by doubling its daily Vancouver-Beijing service and increasing the frequencies of its Toronto-Shanghai non-stop flights. “Air Canada is securing its position as the leading North American carrier to China this summer by adding a second daily Vancouver-Beijing flight and improving its Toronto-Shanghai schedule. These added flights represent nearly a 50 per cent capacity increase for the growing Chinese market, which continues to thrive due to strength in both leisure and business travel,” said Daniel Shurz, Vice President, Network Planning, at Air Canada.
“With these enhancements Air Canada strengthens its position as the carrier with the most frequencies between Vancouver and China and as the only airline with non-stop service to China from eastern Canada.”
The added Vancouver-Beijing daily flight will operate between July 1 and September 30 while the Toronto-Shanghai service will begin April 6 with service three days a week.
In total, Air Canada will operate five daily non-stops between Canada and China this summer.
