Air Canada marked the expansion of its network to its most northern destination with Sunday's start up of daily non-stop service to Iqaluit, Nunavut from Ottawa with same-plane service to/from Montréal.
"Air Canada is strategically expanding its domestic services, offering customers more destinations and choice when flying," said Marcel Forget, Vice President responsible for Network Planning. "The introduction of flights from Air Canada's newest and most northern destination to both Montréal and Ottawa links Canada's eastern Arctic directly to our global network with convenient connections to points across our extensive domestic, transborder and international network."
Air Canada's Iqaluit flights will be operated by Air Canada Jazz with Bombardier CRJ 705 75 seat jet aircraft offering a choice of Executive or Economy class service.
