Air Canada has launched new year-round nonstop flights to Trinidad.

The flights, which will operate on Air Canada Rouge, will fly twice weekly from Toronto to Trinidad’s Piarco International Airport in Port of Spain.

“Air Canada is very pleased to inaugurate this new, year-round service between Toronto and Port of Spain as part of our ongoing global expansion. In addition to being a popular vacation destination for Canadians, Canada and Trinidad and Tobago have longstanding ties, with many Canadians of Trinidadian descent visiting friends and relatives, and there are also substantial business ties. This new service will connect conveniently with our extensive domestic and international network through our Toronto-Pearson global hub,” said Benjamin Smith, President, Passenger Airlines at Air Canada.

The service will operate with a 280-seat Boeing 767-300ER aircraft with 24 Premium Rouge seats and 256 seats in economy class.

The Tuesday and Thursday flights will depart Toronto at 8:45 AM and return from Trinidad at 4:35 PM.
