Air Canada to reintroduce retired B-767s to passenger ops.
Update information regarding the two B767 mentioned in NetLetter #1545.
Air Canada is slated to resume Boeing 767-300 operations as early as February 2025. The carrier recently announced plans to take two 767s out of retirement, returning them to passenger service.
According to Ishrion Aviation, the airline will initially deploy the jet to five destinations from its Toronto hub. The aircraft begins flights to Las Vegas on February 1, 2025.
Starting on February 15, 2025, the B-767s will fly to Edmonton and Calgary. Later, the aircraft will fly to Montego Bay, Jamaica, and Phoenix starting in March. Flights to Phoenix are currently planned for March 14, 16 and 23.
The two aircraft are registered as C-FOCA and C-GLCA. Both jets – which are around 30 years old – had been in storage at Pinal Airpark in Arizona until they were ferried to John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport earlier this year.
Air Canada leadership called the move “temporary insurance” in the airline’s short-term fleet plan. “These are two older B-767s that used to be part of our passenger mainline fleet,” said Mark Galardo, Air Canada’s executive vice president of revenue and network planning, during a third-quarter earnings call.
The carrier also added the B-767 back to its website’s fleet page. Each aircraft can accommodate up to 211 passengers with 24 lie-flat business class seats and 187 in economy.
