Preferred seating: yes

At check-in, seat selection is always free with Air Canada. However, if passengers do not wish to wait and wish to reserve a special seat in advance, this is also possible – either free of charge or for a fee, depending on the fare. In addition, Air Canada offers its guests preferred seats. These can be purchased starting at $17 and offer more space (more legroom, up to 10 centimeters more space between the seats), earlier boarding and deboarding, and a secured space in the overhead compartment. This means luggage is always within easy reach.

Internet | WLAN

Internet available: yes
Costs: from 6.50 Canadian dollars (approx. 4.30 euros)

The Canadian airline has the most extensive in-flight entertainment program in America, with up to 150 movies every month, 200 exciting series and more than 100 music albums, playlists, audio books or podcasts.

About Air Canada

Air Canada is the largest Canadian airline and is also one of the 20 largest airlines in the world. Headquartered in Montréal, Canada, the company was founded back in 1937 under the name Trans-Canada Air Lines as a subsidiary of the government-owned Canadian National Railway. In 1964, the company changed its name to Air Canada. Over the years, Air Canada has grown enormously and in 1997, together with Lufthansa, Thai Airways, SAS Scandinavian Airlines and United Airlines, it formed the Star Alliance – the first and still the largest airline alliance. Further growth of the company came in 2001 with the acquisition of Canadian Airlines, formerly Canada’s second largest carrier. Today, Air Canada has three subsidiaries – Air Canada Jazz/Express, Air Canada Jetz and Air Canada Rouge – and serves a network of 210 airports on six continents.. More than 50 million customers each year testify to the company’s success. Air Canada is committed to customer-focused service and maintains an extensive, continually renewed and growing fleet of aircraft with a focus on the highest levels of comfort, technology and innovation.
