#Traveltradetogether

Customers in Ireland will benefit from convenient connections across North America and beyond via Air Canada’s Vancouver and Montreal hubs

Canada has resumed its non-stop seasonal services between Dublin and Vancouver, operating up to four-times weekly during the summer peak until September 30, 2023, and from Dublin to Montreal, operating up to three-times weekly during the summer peak until September 29, 2023. The summer service returns to build on Air Canada’s existing year-round non-stop service between Dublin Airport and Toronto.

Air Canada flights from Dublin Airport to Vancouver and Montreal will be operated with the airline’s most modern aircraft, the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, accommodating 298 passengers as well as Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner aircraft, accommodating 255 passengers, with a choice of three classes of service: Air Canada Signature Class, which features lie-flat seating, Premium Economy and Economy. All flights are timed to optimise connectivity to Air Canada’s extensive North American network. Seats are available for booking at aircanada.com, via the Air Canada App, Air Canada’s Contact Centres, travel agencies or Air Canada Reservations.

“We are pleased with the return of our summer seasonal services from Dublin to Vancouver and Montreal for 2023,” said Bláithín O’Donnell, Air Canada Country Sales Manager Ireland. “Our customers in Ireland will benefit from even greater travel choice, a direct link from Dublin to all three of our hubs in Vancouver, Montreal and Toronto during the summer season, as well as convenient onward travel options to destinations across the Americas. We look forward to welcoming our customers on board.”

“We are thrilled to announce the resumption of Air Canada’s services to Dublin Airport, connecting Ireland, Montreal, and Vancouver,” said Kenny Jacobs, Chief Executive Officer of daa, the operator of Dublin Airport. “This brings exciting opportunities for both business and leisure passengers, with strong demand expected in both directions. In Vancouver, passengers can explore the stunning natural beauty of Stanley Park, embark on the scenic Sea-to-Sky Highway, or indulge in the vibrant culinary scene of Granville Island. Montreal offers a rich immersion in history, culture, and art, with iconic landmarks like Notre-Dame Basilica and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. We are dedicated to collaborating closely with Air Canada to promote and enhance their offerings, unlocking a world of attractions and experiences for Irish travellers.”
