Air Canada is strengthening its position to Asia with its new non-stop service between Toronto and Shanghai. “This new route directly connects the dynamic cities of Shanghai and Toronto, further enhancing Air Canada’s already extensive service to China and Asia,” said Ben Smith, vice-president of network planning at Air Canada.
“Shanghai has been long regarded as a gateway to the Orient. Air Canada is pleased to provide customers with more flexibility and choice when travelling to or from the region and making connections on our global network beyond.”
The new three-times weekly service is the only non-stop flight from eastern North America to Shanghai and offers the fastest flying time from Toronto. With an elapsed time of 14 hours, 45 minutes westbound and 13 hours, 40 minutes eastbound, the route will save travellers three hours in each direction compared to the Vancouver routing.
