Air Canada is adjusting its domestic Canada schedule to add flights between major cities across Canada in light of Jetsgo's sudden shut down. The carrier will
add new daily round trip services between Toronto and Vancouver, Calgary, Winnipeg and Halifax in time for the peak summer travel season. Air Canada's increase in
services will be implemented in stages across the country as plans are finalized.
The
airline is also to implement increases to its Rapidair shuttle service in the Toronto-Montréal-Ottawa corridor. Beginning this
month, the carrier will boost service between Toronto and Ottawa with an additional 10 one way flights per week, for a total of up to 38 one way flights per day. Air
Canada is also boosting its schedule between Toronto and Montréal with an additional 22 one way flights per week for a total of up to 50 one way flights per
day.
"We are making these schedule improvements where we see demand increase for Air Canada services as a direct result of the withdrawal of Jetsgo," said Ben Smith,
Vice President, Network Planning. "We will continue to evaluate market demand on an on-going basis and make adjustments to our schedule and deployment of
capacity to ensure Air Canada maintains its market leading position as the airline of choice with the lowest fares to the greatest number of destinations on an everyday
basis, bar none."
