Air Canada switches Toronto–Manchester to 787-9 for summer 2027

Air Canada has revised its operational aircraft assignment for the Toronto Pearson to Manchester route scheduled for the Northern summer 2027 season. Starting 01MAY27, the airline plans to deploy the 787-9 on this transatlantic city pair rather than the previously scheduled A321XLR.

Following this fleet adjustment, the Canadian carrier reduces its planned frequency from 1 daily flight in A321XLR down to 3 weekly rotations. This service will subsequently increase to 4 weekly flights from 05JUL27. The timetable lists flight AC908 departing Toronto Pearson at 1845 to reach Manchester at 0630+1 under operating days x357. The return sector AC909 departs Manchester at 0900 and arrives at Toronto Pearson at 1125 on days x146.

Additionally, initial schedule filings show that Air Canada plans to operate the A321XLR on the Toronto Pearson to Stockholm Arlanda route from 01OCT27.
