Travel Advisory
Know the new requirements by the government prior to traveling. For Air Canada’s Travel Ready Hub, go here to look up what you need before embarking on a flight. Note that you alone have to make sure of proper documentation for traveling. There is also the issuance of visas and health certificates; this must comply with the eligibility criteria on all your flights. Never mind; overnight changes by government are not unheard of.
Fly smart with Air Canada.
