Air Canada to Switch Montreal‑Copenhagen Flights to A321XLR in Late Summer

Air Canada will replace its A330‑300s with the long‑range Airbus A321XLR on the nonstop Montreal‑Trudeau to Copenhagen route beginning in September, with the new aircraft operating the four weekly flights. The airline has indicated that the A321XLR may only be used for a few weeks, as the route’s timetable is seasonal. The switch to a narrow‑body aircraft could reduce operating costs and emissions, but it may also mean a smaller cabin and fewer seats for passengers. The change reflects Air Canada’s broader strategy to modernise its fleet on key transatlantic services, though the exact impact on fares and capacity remains to be seen.
