Air Canada launches Flight Pass to Hong Kong and China

Air Canada has launched a multi-trip Flight Pass to Hong Kong and China, expanding the reach of its popular Flight Passes for the first time to Asia. With the 'Hong Kong and China Pass,' Air Canada customers will now be able to save up to 40% off regular economy fares by pre-purchasing six one way trips (three round trips) valid up to one year for travel to Hong Kong, Beijing and Shanghai, from anywhere Air Canada and Jazz fly in Canada.

To promote its new Hong Kong and China Pass, Air Canada is offering special introductory prices until October 25, 2007 starting at $2,548 from Western Canada ($425 per one way trip including all taxes and charges) and $3,598 from Eastern Canada ($600 per one way trip including all taxes and charges). In addition, for purchase through October 25, customers will receive a complimentary bonus pass valid for two one way trips anywhere Air Canada flies within Canada or between Canada and the continental United States.

"We're very excited to launch our first Flight Pass to Asia, giving our customers the freedom to travel with exceptional savings to three of our fastest growing Asian destinations," said Charles McKee, Vice President Marketing. "With six daily non-stop flights to Hong Kong, Beijing and Shanghai, via Toronto and Vancouver, there's never been a better time to experience the great value and price predictability that Air Canada's Flight Passes provide."

By pre-purchasing air travel in bulk, Air Canada's Flight Pass holders benefit from significant savings, a single pre-payment valid for future air travel up to one year and the convenience to manage their bookings online. Moreover, pass prices include airport fees and surcharges.

Air Canada operates twice daily non-stop flights each to Hong Kong, Beijing and Shanghai for a total of six non-stop flights per day.

The Hong Kong and China Pass provides customers 100% Aeroplan Status Mile accumulation on international Toronto/Vancouver-Asia flights and 25% non-status mileage accumulation on connecting domestic Canada flights.
