Air Canada has launched daily flights between Toronto and Seoul, South Korea, marking the airline’s tenth new international route in the past month. The new route will operate with a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft, which offers business travellers the choice of three cabins of service: International Business Class with lie-flat seat suites, Premium Economy and Economy Class.

“Air Canada has undertaken the most intensive period of international expansion in its history,” says Benjamin Smith, president for passenger airlines at Air Canada. “Over the past month, through Air Canada and Air Canada Rouge we have launched ten new non-stop, year-round or seasonal services to international destinations on four continents. By offering convenient connections to our expanding international network through our Toronto global hub, as well as Vancouver and Montreal, we can provide customers even greater connectivity so they can seamlessly travel the world.”

Flights by both Air Canada mainline and Air Canada Rouge are timed to optimize connectivity with Air Canada’s network. They also provide for Aeroplan accumulation and redemption and, for eligible customers, priority check-in, Maple Leaf Lounge access, priority boarding and other benefits. www.aircanada.com
