Air Canada Restores Seasonal Manchester – Toronto Service this Summer

Air Canada is to restore a seasonal service between Manchester and Toronto this summer.

Between 1st June and 30th September, flights will be offered five times each week.

The airline plans to use Airbus A330-300 aircraft for the route, which will carry 297 passengers in three classes.

Flights will be timed to link to Air Canada’s North American network, which includes 46 airports in the United States.

Stephen Gerrard, UK and Ireland general manager of sales, said: “This is very exciting news for our customers in Manchester who can start planning their next trip to rediscover Canada.

“Our non-stop flight between Manchester and Toronto will provide our customers in the north west of England with a direct link to Canada and beyond. We look forward to welcoming our customers back on board.”

Ian Costigan, interim managing director of Manchester Airport, added: “We are thrilled to see Air Canada return as we play our part in reconnecting our region with the world.

“The service to Toronto is fantastic news for companies large and small across the North who do business with Canada, and also for tourism and those visiting friends and family.”

It is also great to see the carrier return with its mainline service, offering a high-quality product with both business and premium economy classes.”
