'Non-stop' Edinburgh to Toronto services: More flights to Canada now underway

Air Canada's non-stop services from Edinburgh Airport to Toronto mean Canada is now only a flight away!

The airline is operating six flights a week between Edinburgh and Toronto throughout the summer months from June 1 to October 2.

So it’s good news for those who’ve got the CN Tower or Niagara Falls on their post-pandemic ‘book-it’ list.
