AC Summer Schedule 2023
Right now, it is pretty hard to travel overseas when most of the places the airline is not going because it is not seasonal. Unless you travel to one place and redirect to another airline in Europe for your next destination. I have a bucket list of places to visit in 2023.
Bottom line:
Now that the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions are a thing of the past in Canada’s aviation landscape, Air Canada is preparing for the full deployment of its routes for the summer of 2023. Following the last few seasons (and years) that have brought their share of challenges in the aviation world, Air Canada is announcing new routes and increased frequency of several flights for the summer of 2023, all around the world. YAY!!
New routes
Three new routes will be established in the summer of 2023: Montreal-Toulouse, Montreal-Copenhagen and Toronto-Brussels.
Air Canada has already announced the Copenhagen route, the Toronto-Brussels route will be operated in partnership with Brussels Airlines, and the Montreal-Toulouse route will be the only year-round service between North America and southwest France.
