Air Canada has announced a significant expansion of its Winter 2026-27 schedule, introducing the first non-stop flights from North America to Tenerife in Spain’s Canary Islands.
The new service will operate from Toronto and Montréal, making Air Canada the only carrier providing direct access to the destination from the continent. This addition highlights the airline’s focus on winter sun destinations amid growing demand for warm-weather escapes.
Previously, no direct flights existed from Toronto to Tenerife, with travelers relying on connecting services via airlines such as Lufthansa, British Airways, and Icelandair. Similarly, routes from other North American cities like New York have been served directly only by United Airlines from Newark, but not from Canadian hubs.
The Tenerife flights form part of a broader network growth, enhancing connectivity to popular leisure spots for Canadian passengers seeking reliable, direct options during the peak winter season.
