The late additions to schedules will see the carrier resume its non-stop seasonal service between Dublin and Vancouver four-times weekly from 3 June – 30 September. The Dublin-Montreal flight will operate three-times-weekly from 2 June – 1 October.
Flights will be on Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners carrying 298 passengers, as well as the Boeing 787-8, carrying 255. Both will offer Air Canada Signature Class, which features lie-flat seating, plus premium economy and economy cabins.
Flights are timed to optimise connectivity to Air Canada’s North American network, which includes 46 US airports.
“The recommencement of these routes will be great news for business and leisure passengers in Ireland, Montreal and Vancouver and we anticipate strong demand for these services in both directions,” said Dalton Philips, chief executive of DAA, the operators of Dublin airport.
Both services have a scheduled 10:10 departure from Dublin, arriving in Vancouver at 11:10 and Montreal at 11:40. Both also have an 08:15 arrival time into Dublin, with Vancouver departures at 15:35 and Montreal at 21:20 the previous day.
