Air Canada provides new services to customers traveling with young children this summer. Anyone flying an Air Canada, Air Canada Rouge or Air Canada Express flight with young children now enjoys dedicated check-in counters at major hubs, complimentary seat selection for proximity seating and other services.

Major hubs with dedicated check-in counters include Toronto (YYZ), Montreal (YUL) and Vancouver (YVR). The perk applies to families with children under 6 on international, domestic and trans-border flights at Toronto and international and domestic flights at Montreal and Vancouver. Families additionally receive pre-boarding between zones 2 and 3 and priority rebooking after schedule changes. Children receive special amenities at check-in and upon boarding.

“Summer is the time of family travel and Air Canada is pleased to offer special new services to make each trip easy and memorable for customers with young children. With Air Canada Family Summer Travel Services, we are introducing airport and onboard programs that will simplify all aspects of the travel experience for families during their summer holiday travels. Parents will be able to enjoy peace of mind so they can share in their children’s delight in the magic of flying and freedom of summer,” said Benjamin Smith, president, airlines, and COO, Air Canada.

The services are in addition to Air Canada’s other family offerings, including its fee-for-service unaccompanied minor program for children ages 8–17.
