Air Canada expects to welcome more than 1 million customers over the next week as it kicks off the summer season with a full schedule of flights across Canada. The airline is operating more than 50 bucket list destinations across the country, connecting Canadians with loved ones and the best of the season.
Glowing Hearted Hospitality Throughout the Journey
With Canada Day upon us, customers can expect special touches throughout the travel experience that reflect the pride every employee feels as the flag carrier for Canada. Air Canada teams across the country are ready to welcome more customers with Glowing Hearted hospitality, elevated comfort, and Canada Day surprises combined with digital tools and new in-flight offerings.
“For many Canadians, summer vacation is when they explore, discover, and share experiences with each other, whether it’s across Canada or at historically relevant sites abroad, like Juno Beach in France, and we’re proud of the role we play in the travel lives of Canadians,” said Tom Stevens, Vice President of Customer Experience and Service Operations at Air Canada. “We’re ready for the busy summer season and our teams are focused on guiding our customers with a very real sense of Canadian pride as we share the very best of the country with the world.”
