Air Canada revises summer routes with planned return to Tel Aviv

“In preparation, Air Canada has undertaken extensive safety and security reviews, including consultations with Canadian and foreign government authorities, unions representing its flight crews, and security experts,” said a spokesperson for the airline.

For September and October, Air Canada has filed only a single 787-8 flight per week from Montreal to Tel Aviv. This could change but might also suggest that flights connecting the two cities will follow a similar pattern as before Israel’s conflict with Hamas which began on October 7, 2023.

Before the Israeli-Hamas war escalated regional tensions further involving Hezbollah into the conflict; according to Cirium’s Diio Mi data; Air Canada had daily flights with the 777-300ER between Toronto and Tel Aviv in August 2023 complemented by four weekly flights from Montreal operated by a 787-9.

Now with both routes set for operation using Boeing's smaller capacity model - -the Dreamliner or B787--8s--the carrier is expectedly offering fewer seats: approximately255 seats per departure according to Cirium''s data analysis

On Air Canada's travel agency website flexible booking policies remain valid regarding trips towards/from Israel extending their 'Goodwill Policy' effective since January3rd offering re-booking/refund options within specific dates

"As market conditions warrant," added another representative "it intends- further increase service frequencies future."
