Air Canada will operate direct flights to Tenerife South Airport from Toronto and Montreal starting in October, running through the winter season until April.
The airline plans three weekly connections: two from Toronto and one from Montreal. From Toronto, flights depart Thursdays and Sundays beginning October 25, with returns on Mondays and Fridays. Montreal services start October 31, departing Saturdays and returning Sundays.
These routes will use the Airbus A321XLR, configured with 14 Signature Class seats and 168 economy seats for 182 passengers total.
Lope Afonso, Tenerife Cabildos vice president and tourism councilor, stated: We are witnessing the realization of one of our roadmap’s key goals, expanding strategic connectivity, particularly with markets suited to repositioning the destination through a diversified offer. This agreement with Air Canada is a decisive step to establish Tenerife as the reference Atlantic destination for the North American market, attracting high-spending visitors who value our quality offerings.
Mark Galardo, Air Canada executive vice president of commercial and cargo president, said: We are further strengthening Air Canadas global network from North America. Adding Tenerife in the iconic Canary Islands this winter reflects our ambition to offer customers and Aeroplan members exceptional, diverse destinations. The next-generation A321XLR enables convenient direct service from North America to the island of eternal spring, known for its volcanic landscapes, adventure activities, and year-round warm climate.
