Air Canada To Launch Non-Stop Routes To The U.S. This December

This December travelers can look forward to daily trans-border flights between Halifax-and-Newark and Vancouver-and-Houston. This will connect the networks of Air Canada and United Airlines.

Mark Galardo, Senior Vice President, Network Planning and Revenue Management at Air Canada says, “With these new routes from Halifax and Vancouver, Air Canada is meeting demand in these important markets and building on our strengthened trans-border partnership with United Airlines to solidify our leadership in the Canada-U.S. market.”

“These routes will give customers in Atlantic and Western Canada more convenient options for flying to the U.S. They will reinforce the already strong links between Atlantic Canada and New York, while for customers in Western Canada they will provide more options for reaching destinations in Latin America and the Caribbean through United Airlines’ Houston hub. They will also facilitate many new one-stop connections from the U.S. onto Air Canada’s extensive domestic and global network,” Galardo continues.

Air Canada has the largest number of flights to the United States. The airline services 51 airports in the U.S.
