Air Canada is adding four new nonstop routes to the U.S. from Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport.
Starting March 29, 2026, Canada’s largest airline will connect Toronto and New York-LaGuardia, followed by Chicago O’Hare and Washington Dulles on June 1 and Boston on July 1.
Flights will operate four times daily to LaGuardia, three times daily to Boston, twice daily to Chicago O’Hare, and once daily to Washington Dulles.
All four U.S. routes will operate under the Air Canada Express brand, with aircraft and crews provided by regional partner Jazz Aviation. Jazz will fly the routes using overhauled, 78-seat Q400 turboprop aircraft.
The new routes will come online after a U.S. Customs Pre-Clearance facility opens at the airport. This will allow passengers flying to the U.S. from Canada to clear customs before departure, Air Canada leaders said.
Domestic Increases
The carrier is also increasing the frequency of existing domestic routes from Toronto to Montréal and Ottawa.
“This is our most significant expansion at Toronto Island since Air Canada first served the airport 35 years ago,” Mark Galardo, Air Canada’s executive vice president, COO, and president of cargo, said in a statement. “The new transborder routes will especially benefit our loyal customers and business travelers by creating frequent and easy connections between the heart of Canada’s financial capital and the major markets of New York, Boston, Washington, and Chicago.”
Air Canada has a much larger presence at nearby Toronto Pearson International Airport, where it operates over 600 flights per day.
