The 25% discount applies to economy (Standard), premium economy (Lowest) and business-class (Lowest) fares for bookings made until Sept. 18, 2024, at 11:59 p.m. in your chosen departure city in Canada. It is valid for travel between Sept. 28, 2024, and May 31, 2025.

The following blackout dates apply:

Only the base fare will be discounted, with fees, taxes and surcharges payable at the full amount.

The offer is only for new bookings operated by Air Canada (including Air Canada Express and Rouge). Codeshare flights are not included in this promotion, except for flights operated by Lufthansa, Swiss, Austrian Airlines, Brussels Airlines and Discover Airlines that are booked as an Air Canada codeshare with an AC flight number. Flights within Canada, to and from Canada, and between any destinations in Canada's network apply. For example, flying Air Canada from Dulles International Airport (IAD) near Washington, D.C., to Tokyo's Narita International Airport (NRT) via Montreal-Trudeau International Airport (YUL) would apply.

There is no limit on how many times you can use the discount, so if you are considering multiple new bookings within the offer window, now would be a good time to make your reservations.
