The Montreal-based airline plans to resume flights from Toronto to Tokyo Haneda and from Vancouver to Osaka, starting next summer. It has already resumed flights to Tokyo Narita Airport in April.
The announcement comes after Japan introduced new border measures this fall, which allow all foreign nationals to enter Japan with proof of vaccination or a negative PCR test result, easing two years of pandemic restrictions.
Air Canada also plans to expand its European routes by adding flights from Toronto to Brussels, Montreal to Toulouse and Montreal to Copenhagen, starting on 1er June 2023.
The airline said it would also increase the frequency of its current international routes in the Atlantic, Pacific and South American regions, including flights to Tokyo Narita, Frankfurt and Dubai.
The announcement is part of Air Canada’s plan to expand global services in response to growing demand for international travel.
