Bermuda, Cayman Islands and Turks and Caicos Islands are not countries. Guadeloupe and Martinique are not even dependencies or territories but département d'outre-mer. -- 04:30, December 13, 2004, UTC


Why categorise Oceania destinations between North America and South America?


Its irritating that Hweiwei listed Cayman Islands, Turks and Caicos Islands, Bermuda, Aruba and the Netherlands Antilles as countries, whereas Hongkong and Macau are not. I wonder where he could draw a line to differentiate them.


I have changed canada, united states and mexico to be sub-headings under north america. previously they were just levels of indentation, all organized under the single heading 'north america'. I feel the new layout is better because it allows the table of contents to be used, plus headings are more obvious than indentation, i feel. -- Fudoreaper 00:56:01, 2005-08-09 (UTC)


  • This list of destinations is not date referenced. Are these destinations being served in 2005 or what? We need to know how current the list is or it is of no value. Ardfern 20:06, 20 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] AC Hubs

The labeling of Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal as hubs is relevant to this page, but the current system could use improvement. Also, I would like to see a source for the status of Montreal as Air Canada's main hub. Certainly their headquarters are there, but I have never heard Air Canada label it as such, and based on their operations there, it certainly doesn't warrant that distinction.

I've never really been satisfied indicating the hubs with the bolded Hub behind the airports name. Perhaps having an initial section listing their Hubs would be more suitable. Jamincan 12:48, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Central Mountain Air serves some of these destinations on behalf of Air Canada

Several of the destinations listed are served by Central Mountain Air on behalf of Air Canada.

According to [1], "Central Mountain also operates the following domestic routes on behalf of Air Canada from Calgary to Grande Prairie, Lethbridge, Medicine Hat, and Cranbrook."

I dont have a problem with leaving the destinations in because they are part of the AC Network but the Destinations Header should reflect the fact that some of the destinations arent served solely by Air Canada or Jazz.

Also, some destinations are missing. A partial list is 1. Hamilton, Ontario 2. Mont Joli/Rimouski, PQ 3. Sarnia, Ontario 4. Cleveland, Ohio 5. Harrisburg, Penn... All Jazz served cities

Refer to destinations list on AC Jazz webpage [2]

I'll revise the list when I get a chance unless someone else beats me to it. DSatYVR 17:35, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Guangzhou

Until the route is started, it seems that the suitable spot to mention the future route YVR-CAN is under the Upcoming New Routes section. I've removed the mention of Guangzhou as a listed destination once already, but User:207.216.102.131 seems to have added it again. I believe the same user was the one who originally added it, as well as included its mention in the Upcoming New Routes section. If the consensus is against me and people believe that it should be included under the listed routes section, but in the meantime, I think it should only be mentioned once, and the Upcoming New Routes section seems more suitable.

removed - AC will not be servicing CAN - not in online timetable - change of plans --Rosetown 22:34, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AC Network Weather link added again

I've added this link again. Not sure why it was deleted. How is weather at destination not relevant? DSatYVR 01:21, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Why does this list include subsidiary destinations?

Does it say in any MOS that the list here OUGHT to include subsidiary destinations (i.e. AC Jazz)? If not, let's REMOVE the subsidiary destinations and put them in a new list. AC and AC Jazz should be considered separate entities. WhisperToMe 00:11, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

I split the destinations - AC Jazz-only destinations and destinations served by AC and AC Jazz are listed at Air Canada Jazz destinations WhisperToMe 22:25, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
