Air Canada now flying non-stop from Toronto to Yellowknife
Air Canada is starting non-stop, year-round service between Toronto and Yellowknife in December.
The new, three-times weekly service will provide convenient connections between eastern Canada and the capital of the Northwest Territories.
Customers will also be able to seamlessly connect onward from Yellowknife on Air Canada’s interline partner, Canadian North.
Service between Toronto and Yellowknife will begin December 1, 2023, operated using Canadian-made Airbus A220 aircraft. It will be configured with 137 seats in a Business and Economy cabin, with onboard Wi-Fi and seatback entertainment systems featuring hundreds of hours of content and live TV at every seat.
Customers will be able to earn and redeem Aeroplan points and eligible customers will enjoy premium services where available, including priority boarding and baggage handling, and Maple Leaf Lounge access in Toronto.
