Air Canada has announced plans to launch flights from Montreal-Trudeau International Airport to Palma de Mallorca, Spain, starting June 17, 2026. The new service will operate four times a week and is made possible by the airline’s acquisition of the long-range Airbus A321XLR aircraft.
According to Air Canada, eastbound flights will depart on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, while westbound flights are scheduled for Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. The A321XLR can fly approximately 5,400 miles—about 800 miles farther than the standard A321neo—enabling routes that were previously out of reach for single-aisle jets.
"This revolutionary narrowbody aircraft unlocks new, exciting global opportunities with its widebody range and enhanced onboard product," said Mark Galardo, executive vice president and chief commercial officer of Air Canada.
