Flights between Edinburgh and Toronto resumed by Air Canada as 'demand increases'

Air Canada have brought back flights between Edinburgh and Toronto for the 'peak season', and plans to run the service until January - adjusting for seasonal demand.

The airline introduced various international flights recently, as travel demands increase. The flights, which are set to be daily, will be reduced as winter approaches.

In the later part of the year, the flights will take off three times weekly until January. In spring, the daily service will come back.

Stephen Gerrard, Air Canada General Manager Sales, UK and Ireland, commented: “We are delighted once again to be flying from the Scottish capital with our newly extended non-stop service between Edinburgh and Toronto.

"Our customers in Scotland will benefit from this direct link to our Toronto hub and beyond to destinations across the Americas in both the summer and winter seasons. We look forward to welcoming our customers on board.”

Air Canada will be using the Boeing 787 Dreamliner for the service, with economy, premium and Air Canada Signature Class to choose from.
