Thomas Cook Airlines are to enter the crowded UK-Canada market next summer and offer new charter services from London-Gatwick, Birmingham, Glasgow and Edinburgh to Toronto.
A one-class cabin will be used with greater seat pitch than the economy sections on scheduled airlines.
2x Boeing 757s with 187 leahter seats will be used for the services.
But there are concerns that there is too much overcapacity in the UK-Canada market and therefore could be a lot of consolidation next summer.
