MONTREAL, Sept. 4, 2019 /CNW Telbec/ - Air Canada announced

Toronto and Brussels starting May

"We are pleased to launch new non-stop, year-round flights from
Toronto to Brussels, complementing our successful
Montreal-Brussels service now celebrating its tenth
anniversary. This is a further expansion of Air Canada's reach to
Europe and beyond. This new
service will conveniently connect our extensive North American

Brussels, where our Star Alliance partner Brussels Airlines offers
far-reaching connections throughout Europe and Africa," said Mark
Galardo, Vice President of Network Planning at Air

important European city. Air Canada offers a multitude of travel options
between North America and
