Air Canada is launching the only daily service between Vancouver, BC and Paris this summer. To meet the seasonal travel demand, the carrier will operate daily one-stop "same plane" flights  between July 1-September 29, 2009. The service complements Air Canada's daily non-stop service between Toronto-Paris and Montreal-Paris.

The flights depart Vancouver at 8:50 AM, arrive in Montreal at 4:34 PM and arrive in Paris at 7:05 AM the next morning. The return flights depart Paris at 11:30 AM, arrive in Montreal at 1:13 PM and land in Vancouver at 4:59 PM. Estimated flight time is 13h15 eastbound and 14h20 westbound. Newly refurbished 211-seat Boeing 767-300 ER aircraft will be used, with a choice of Economy Class and Executive First service featuring 24 lay flat bed suites.
