Air Canada 特大喜讯：多伦多--北京直航开通
六月二日起，每周四班，周一，周二，周四周六。时间也好，早上10点起飞，13个小时20分，AC031。回程二三五日，下午1点20起飞，行程13小时，AC032。 282座。 这回省心，大家也不用往Vancouver搬了。 Air Canada to Introduce Non-Stop Service to Beijing from Toronto; First-Ever Direct Link With Eastern Canada Part of Flag Carrier's Growing China Services MONTREAL, Jan. 19 /CNW Telbec/ - Air Canada today announced that effective June 2, 2005 it will introduce non-stop service between Toronto and Beijing, further building its main Toronto hub with more non-stop flights to Asia and creating the first-ever direct link between eastern Canada and mainland China. Air Canada will operate four non-stop flights per week from Toronto to the Chinese capital, complementing its daily non-stop flights to Beijing and Shanghai from Vancouver, and twice daily Hong Kong flights including new non-stop service from Toronto. In addition, in response to increased demand on its Vancouver-Shanghai route, Air Canada will replace its 189-seat Boeing 767-300ER service with larger 282-seat A340-300 aircraft during the peak demand season beginning June 1, 2005. With these new services, Air Canada is boosting seating capacity between Canada and China by 16 per cent and providing freight forwarders with 45 per cent more cargo tonnage from one year ago. "China is the fastest growing aviation market in the world, and Air Canada's global network is well positioned to meet the needs of international travellers and freight forwarders. With the introduction of the first non-stop service to Beijing from our main Toronto hub, Air Canada is bringing the Americas that much closer to mainland China," said Montie Brewer, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Growing our non-stop services to China from both eastern and western North America provides customers more flexibility and choice. Combined with our major expansion of services throughout Latin America, also via our Toronto hub, Air Canada offers international travellers between Asia and South America the added convenience of avoiding U.S. transit visa requirements." With an elapsed time of 13 hours 20 minutes westbound and 13 hours eastbound, Air Canada's new Toronto-Beijing service will save travellers more than three and a half hours in each direction compared to the Vancouver routing. Air Canada will operate the new route using 282-seat A340-300 aircraft. With a 10:00 departure from Toronto on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday arriving in Beijing at 11:20 the next day, flight AC031 is timed to offer convenient morning connections from points throughout Air Canada's extensive global network, particularly in eastern Canada, the United States and Latin America. The eastbound flight, AC032, leaves Beijing at 13:20 on Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday, and arrives in Toronto at 14:20 the same day, providing maximum connecting options throughout the Americas. With the addition of Toronto-Beijing non-stop service, Air Canada will offer customers up to 13 non-stop flights per day in each direction between Canada and eight destinations in Asia. From its main hub in Toronto, the carrier operates non-stop flights to Hong Kong, Tokyo, Seoul and Delhi, the only non-stop link between North America and India. From its Pacific Asian gateway in Vancouver, Air Canada serves Hong Kong, Shanghai, Beijing, Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya and Seoul with daily non-stop flights. Montréal-based Air Canada provides scheduled and charter air transportation for passengers and cargo to more than 150 destinations on five continents. Canada's flag carrier is the 13th largest commercial airline in the world and serves more than 27 million customers annually. Air Canada is a founding member of Star Alliance providing the world's most comprehensive air transportation network. |

2001年，国内几个弟兄要到加拿大来，在选择地点时给我打电话，倾向于Vancouver，理由就是来回方便，但又想来多伦多，因为我在这儿。当时我斩钉截铁地告诉他们，来吧，三年到五年，一定会有直航的。三年半了，圣诞前，其中两个给我谈，身感折腾之苦，说每回一想到坐飞机去加拿大，肝胆俱裂  ，决定今年夏天搬到BC，这可是我相识相交十年到二十年的哥们儿，走了那还了得。加航真不错，够意思。
