MONTREAL — Air Canada rouge launched three new routes to Central Europe in recent weeks, expanding the airline’s presence in this increasingly travelled part of the world. All three routes are operated out of Toronto on B767-300ERs with Premium Rouge and economy cabins.
The airline’s seasonal nonstop service to Warsaw started June 15 and runs until Sept. 30, and marks the only nonstop service by a Canadian airline between Canada and Poland. Flights depart Toronto Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays and return Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays from Warsaw until Sept. 30.
Meanwhile on June 11 Air Canada rouge’s flight AC1910 from Toronto Pearson arrived at Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport, kicking off three times weekly nonstop seasonal service. Flights leave Toronto Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays and return Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. The service is scheduled to operate until Oct. 15.
And Prague flights launched May 29 and run until Sept. 29. Flights depart Toronto on Wednesday, Friday and Sunday.
Air Canada rouge also launched its three times weekly Glasgow service this week. The new flights represent the only nonstop service between Toronto and Glasgow and complement Air Canada rouge’s nonstop service to Edinburgh.
“The new route is our second to Scotland and, taken together with our four-times weekly Edinburgh service, means Air Canada now flies daily to Scotland from Toronto,” said Benjamin Smith, President, Passenger Airlines, at Air Canada. “This provides customers the most options and best coverage of any airline in the Canada-Scotland market, with Air Canada operating the most seats and flying to the most destinations.”
