In the long term we are going to see more connections worldwide with Pearson, does anyone know what new international destinations are likely to be added? I would assume Dubai would be one of them for sure, and maybe some more Middle Eastern Cities. Beirut has been rumoured by AC for years.
Also, maybe with some new airlines coming in, we can get some new cities. I think there will be more US expansion in the future with AC and there new E-jets. I am hoping for more florida destinations.
I am thinking the following fron YYZ
SIN, DXB, BKK, Beirut (do not know code),

Dxb is a possibility but i do know about SIN, BKK and vietnam would be wishful thinking. I think there was a thread where it was mentioned Air Canada was looking at YYZ-Sin as a future route.
I am surprised Lan Chile or Aerolineas Argentina does not fly into YYZ.
Other possibolities i think; Air China, Virgin, may ROyal AIr Moroc or Egyptair?

How about YYZ-BOM or YYZ-BLR nonstop with 787's or 772LR of AI?
Here's hoping that AC restores YYZ-DEL nonstop, and SQ comes to take Toronto's fine citizens to SIN.

Turkish Airlines have a ticket office in Toronto and pax fly out through YYZ on BA, KL & MP. This would be prefered then going through US Pre-clearence here.

I dont think YYZ-HNL will come back, im sketchy of it.
Transat, sunquest or zoom will probably start it some day...
Zoom was supposed to start this service in early 2006, but the loads were not selling so they cancelled the route before it even started.

ELAL will probably be gone before year end, however OS is booming in YYZ with full loads almost every flight.

There have been numerous posts on a.net over the last 3 months quoting major media from israel suggesting that LY wants to pull out of Toronto based on the high landing fees and low loads. They have already cut the YYZ-LAX-YYZ route which is saving them around 1million annually.

That wasn't a rumour. AC applied for the route but was turned down by a far-sighted Canadian Government (an oxymoron!) on the grounds that Beirut airport was not safe.

YYZ-BOM is certainly on the cards as there is already AI and AC flying to DEL....bulk of the Indian community here is from north India....but BLR could be a good hub for the growing S.Indian population here and could provide connections to Sri Lanka and other places....yes, a thrice weekly to BLR could survive.....

Reportedly, AC's plan is that once the 777s start to enter the fleet (and once they have the capacity they need) that YYZ-DEL will return as a nonstop, and that YYZ-ZRH will be a separate flight. There are also rumours that AC does plan on starting a YYZ-BOM flight, and that with the 787s there may even be a YVR-DEL route (but the AC insiders will know the inside scoop better than I do).
Quoting ORDRyan28 (Reply 9): i was thinking YYZ-IST via TK in a few years...seems like it could be a good market for TK, any thoughts?
TK is very interested and has been trying to get the route and frequency authority to make a YYZ-IST route viable, but AC has been against it up till now. Now that TK may join the Star Alliance (they have stated their intention to join) AC may change their mind and be more amenable to TK's request.

Quoting JAGflyer (Reply 17): LY will be going TLV-YYZ-ORD-YYZ-TLV
thats correct, starting end of October. the question I have been wondering is...could LY's 762's (which they are going to use on the ORD route starting oct 29 instead of the 744's) make it nonstop from TLV-ORD? i believe i heard LY has equipped their 767's with special features that make them go further than an ordinary 762. does this have any factual evidence behind it?

Quoting RicardoFG (Reply 12): ELAL will probably be gone before year end, however OS is booming in YYZ with full loads almost every flight.
OS is definitely booming load-wise ex YYZ, however a recent press release outlined a network realignment which would probably see the elimination of an existing route in North America. Presumably IAD or YYZ. The deciding factor will be profit and yield, and given the Pearson cost structure, I hate to say that YYZ will probably get the axe.

Just the mere fact that they can fly MIA/TLV or ORD/TLV without having to make a fuel stop. AFAIK, they are the longest range 762's currently in scheduled passenger operation.
Quoting Olympus69 (Reply 19): That wasn't a rumour. AC applied for the route but was turned down by a far-sighted Canadian Government (an oxymoron!) on the grounds that Beirut airport was not safe.
It was beyond the application stage. The flights were scheduled and in our flying packages, and were yanked one week before the first scheduled operation. The Canadian Goverment was pressured--okay encouraged by the US Government to suspend its plans. This was covered extenstively in previous posts.
Quoting Yegbey01 (Reply 18): AC flies to ICN durring the summer (I think 3X per week) from YYZ already
Seasonal summer service between mid-June and late-September. AC065 - 3 times weekly.
Quoting Ordryan28 (Reply 16): I remember reading about LY and YYZ not working out..thanks for the info tho
Stanley Morais, LY's Station/Canada Manager along with the Station Managers of AF/AZ & AC's Milton, were amongst the most outspoken critics of the extortionist landing fees at Toronto-Pearson. Upon its opening both LY & AZ predicted they might very well bail from YYZ.

32 AirbusfanYYZ: Hmm, you're probably right about TP. QF I am guessing more as a response to AC's new YYZ service. Cheers, Kaz
33 Ordryan28: yes, I was also wondering why LY's 762's are able to fly the longest range. does anyone care to share their knowledge about this? -Ryan
34 Jayce: This may be a longshot, but what if QF were to go non-stop on the SYD-YVR route and then tag on a YVR-YYZ run?

40 YULYMX: Not sure if they plain drop it or there ETOPS certification that they use to europe is enough to fly to HNL...

44 Vanguard: Mainly because it is NOT LAX! It's only 114 miles more too!
45 AirCanada014: Qantas didn't fly to YYZ it was a codeshare onboard CP from HNL to YYZ.

49 Thenoflyzone: Yes, Etihad started service to YYZ earlier this year via BRU. You dont see pictures of the aircraft at YYZ because it arrives and departs at night! A
50 Yyz717: I thought the QF flights to YYZ were from LAX? They stopped when the YYZ-LAX route was picked up by oneworld partner AA.
51 StarAC17: It would make sense to have done this but there is no way a 763 could not have made the LAX-SYD route and made money on it.

53 Yyz717: All QF 763 skeds in LAX and SFO stopped at HNL anyway. So the routing would have been YYZ-LAX-HNL-SYD.

59 Olympus69: I found a newsletter fom the year 2000 which confirmed your statement, Jayce. I was wrong about the flight (QF105) being routed through LAX.
60 Ctang: Any Chance of AC flying non-stop to Sydney with the 772LR?
61 N1120A: BEY would absolutely be more likely to be served from YUL. YYZ-THR, however, has been an AC wet dream for years. And New Orleans will get its flights
62 AirCanada014: The B777-200LR range for YYZ - AKL is acceptable range do you think there is any demands for that one even if they only offer 3 or 5 flights a week?
