Winter 2026-27: Air Canada adds Tenerife, Roatan, Santo Domingo, Merida, Mazatlan

Air Canada has added new sun destinations for its winter 2026-27 season, including the only non-stop flights from North America to Tenerife in the Canary Islands.

The airline has also added Roatan, Santo Domingo, Merida and Mazatlan, plus several new non-stop flights to Caribbean and Mexico destinations, all of which are available for purchase now.

“We are further cementing Air Canada’s global network as one of the most far-reaching from the North American continent,” said Mark Galardo, executive vice president and chief commercial officer, and president of Cargo at Air Canada, in a press release issued Monday (April 6). 

The addition of Tenerife, in the Canary Islands, offered from Toronto and Montreal, “reflects our continued ambition to offer our customers and Aeroplan members an exceptional, diversified array of unique Air Canada destinations,” he said.

“Enabled by the next-generation capabilities of our incoming A321XLR aircraft, travellers on the only non-stop service from North America now have convenient options to reach the island renowned for its stunning volcanic scenery, a rich array of bucket-list activities and year-round warm weather,” he said.

Air Canada, additionally, is expanding flights into Latin America from Vancouver, enabled by growing A220 and Air Canada Rouge bases that unlock sought-after, non-stop service to Costa Rica and Mexico, including to Mazatlan, Galardo went on to say.

The airline is also introducing new leisure options for customers in Edmonton, Winnipeg, Quebec and Halifax.

“Together with our previously announced new services to Sapporo and Quito, and our new leisure options from Calgary to Mexico, Air Canada continues to deepen its industry-leading network, proudly connecting Canada globally,” said Galardo.

Air Canada’s Tenerife flights will be operated with the airline’s new Airbus A321XLR aircraft featuring lie-flat seats in the Business Class cabin, bringing a wide-body experience to a narrow-body jet.

With capacity for 182 passengers in a configuration of 14 Signature Class seats and 168 Economy Class seats, the A321XLR also marks the beginning of the next era in Air Canada’s cabin interiors with the introduction of a new design standard for onboard experience.
