Air Canada Cancels This 9-Hour Transatlantic Long-Haul Route [Map]

Air Canada has announced the cancellation of its nine-hour transatlantic long-haul flight between Toronto and Luanda, Angola. This decision represents a significant reduction in Air Canada’s connections to African destinations, effectively halving their existing routes on this particular service. Currently, the flight operated twice weekly, offering passengers a direct link between North America and Southern Africa. Prior to this change, Air Canada was one of only two airlines operating non-stop flights between these locations. Industry analysts suggest that factors contributing to the route's discontinuation remain undisclosed at this time, but it highlights evolving airline strategies regarding long-distance international travel.
