With the departure of flight AC890 en route to Rome from Toronto`s Pearson International Airport, Air Canada inaugurates year-round non-stop flights between Canada and Italy`s capital city. In addition, effective April 12, 2005, Air Canada will offer flights on a codeshare basis via Rome to Lamezia Terme, Catania, Palermo, Turin and Venice in cooperation with Air One, a Lufthansa partner airline. The codeshare agreement with Air One features reciprocal frequent flyer benefits for Aeroplan members.
The reintroduction of our non-stop service to Rome strengthens Air Canada`s position as the carrier of choice for non-stop flights to Europe, said Ben Smith, Vice President, Planning. Together with our codeshare partner, Air One, Air Canada`s network is extended further to points throughout Italy resulting in a more seamless travel experience for our customers.
Air Canada`s Toronto-Rome non-stop service is operated using 223-seat Boeing 767-300 ER aircraft, offering customers a choice of two classes of service. Flights are timed for convenient connections to and from cities throughout Air Canada`s extensive North American network.
