Air Canada is suspending two transatlantic routes next summer, citing “commercial reasons.”
The carrier confirmed the network changes on Tuesday, which Aeroroutes first reported.
Flights from the Canadian airline’s Montreal hub to Tel Aviv and Delhi will not return in Summer 2026. Both routes previously operated three times per week on a Boeing 787 Dreamliner.
These routes were initially slated to resume in May. Both Delhi and Tel Aviv will continue to be served from Air Canada’s Toronto hub, an airline spokesperson told AirlineGeeks.
The Montreal-to-Delhi service leaving Canada will now end on April 28 and resume on Oct. 25.
“Affected customers will be offered options, including rebooking on alternative gateways or a full refund. Air Canada is enacting the change now to give customers certainty and the opportunity to make alternative travel arrangements. Air Canada remains committed to the India market and will operate daily service from Toronto to Delhi next summer,” the spokesperson added.
Tel Aviv Change
Air Canada’s service from Montreal to Tel Aviv was scheduled to resume on May 3, but has been removed from its schedule.
“Service from Toronto will operate five times weekly, up from four times weekly this winter, but Montreal-Tel Aviv will not operate for summer 2026 for commercial reasons,” the spokesperson continued. “Affected customers will be offered options, including rebooking on alternative gateways or a full refund. Air Canada remains committed to the Tel Aviv market and is enacting these changes now to give customers certainty and the opportunity to make alternative travel arrangements.”
