Air Canada is making its fleet of all-business class, Jetz charter aircraft available to customers for commercial flights as it redeploys the fleet on popular winter routes. Each of the airline’s four Airbus A319 Jetz aircraft is configured with only 58 North American Business Class seats — less than half the normal number of seats on this aircraft type — providing an elevated level of comfort and service.
“Air Canada is very pleased to offer its customers a unique opportunity to travel like a pro athlete or a VIP and experience our premium Jetz service. Customers booking on a Jetz flight will enjoy such amenities as its all-Business Class seating configuration, upgraded meal service, and shorter boarding and deplaning times. These features, combined with Jetz’s other attributes, create a private-jet-like experience,” said Mark Galardo, Vice President of Network Planning and Alliances at Air Canada.

When flying with Air Canada Jetz, customers will travel in a single cabin with 58 North American Business Class seats offering 42-to-49-inch seat pitch, including four facing seats with a table in the middle that can be booked for families and friends traveling together, and complimentary iPads for entertainment. Customers receive priority check-in and security clearance, Maple Leaf Lounge, and Star Alliance Lounge access (where available) and aircraft leave from prime gate locations, requiring customers to begin boarding only 35 minutes prior to departure. Customers will also be offered a premium, pre-packaged meal curated by celebrated Montreal chef Antonio Park with complimentary bar and beverage service. All flights will be operated in accordance with Air Canada’s biosafety protocols, centered around the Air Canada CleanCare+ program.
Customers will be able to book their Jetz flight beginning October 21, 2020, for travel during the Christmas period between December 12, 2020, and January 6, 2021, with a second schedule for March Break flights currently under development. Customers should consult aircanada.com/acjetzfor schedule details, including operating days. Air Canada Jetz will operate non-stop between Toronto to Barbados and Cancun AND Montreal to Barbados.
For customers looking to book leisure travel, Air Canada Vacations is currently developing Ultimate Escapes which include Jetz flights as well as stays at luxury hotels and resorts, private transfers, exclusive resort discounts, room upgrades, and complimentary services. Details on Ultimate Escapes will be available shortly on aircanadavacations.com.
