Air Canada to phase out routes to these U.S. destinations in 2027

Air Canada has confirmed plans to discontinue four routes to U.S. destinations starting next summer, according to an email shared with CTVNews.ca.

The airline cited regular schedule reviews to align capacity with customer demand and travel patterns as part of its rationale for canceling the routes. A spokesperson indicated the changes reflect current demand trends.

Air Canada said it will maintain service to Nashville, Raleigh-Durham, and Seattle from other Canadian airports, but did not specify whether Charleston service will continue.

In related corporate moves, Air Canada announced last week that it will add several new U.S. routes for 2027, including Toronto–Louisville, Montreal–Indianapolis, and Edmonton–Newark, in addition to increasing capacity on the Edmonton–San Francisco route with a larger Airbus A220.

Jointly with United Airlines, seasonal U.S. to Canada routes are planned for next summer, including Denver–Ottawa and Denver–Quebec City (seasonal), Newark–St. John’s (seasonal), Washington, D.C.–Quebec City (expanded), and Denver–Winnipeg (expanded).
