Air Canada Rouge pushing ahead with expansion and will add 21 aircraft to their fleet from Air Canada by the end of the year:
Air Canada rouge to establish Vancouver, Calgary bases in Spring - ch-aviation.ch
New bases at Vancouver and Calgary. Could we see any further expansion from them to rival Air Transat? Correct me if i'm wrong but is Montreal served from MAN? Potential there for a route if not served.
Also Air China had indicated long haul growth into Europe with new routes to Munich, Vienna and Barcelona (Barcelona served via Vienna). Positive signs that they are still planning expansion into Europe. Lets hope the signs are good for Manchester. Were they rumoured to be starting MAN via Zurich?
