Going To The Sunny South With Air Canada Vacations

Choosing an airline to get to a destination is a very important part of the trip planning process. In Canada we are fortunate to have many great options of airlines to choose from to get us to that sunny destination; I am proud to say that our partners, Air Canada Vacations are one of them!

Last month I had an experience that I want to share with you as it has left me speechless.  I was booked with Air Canada Vacations to travel from Toronto to Montego Bay; we completed the boarding process, ready to take off when the pilot announced that there was a mechanical problem and we wouldn’t be able to fly on that particular aircraft, we were asked to deplane and advised that they would have another aircraft ready for us within an hour. I’ve had this happen to me before with another airline when I was travelling to Europe and the mechanical problem ended up costing me to lose two full days of my vacations, this was not the case in this situation, Air Canada told us one hour and one hour it was! I am still amazed that they brought in another aircraft, reloaded our luggage and had us board the replacement aircraft all within one hour, all I can say is WOW!! I was in the air and onto the beach in no time!

Air Canada has 340 aircraft in its fleet; if there is a problem with one aircraft they immediately get a replacement aircraft to get people to their destinations in a safe and timely manner. This is very important to know when planning your vacation as the first step to an unforgettable vacation is getting there!

Cheers,
