Of note, they also want to start flying to Calgary and Vancouver.
What I can't understand is why Air Canada won't compete with Emirates. They could offer daily service to Dubai and connections with other Star Alliance partners there and do quiet well. Instead, their refusal to service Dubai is virtually driving customers to Emirates' doorstep.
