Business-Class Travel Made Easy: Exploring Air Canada's Unique Jetz Service

A Special Fleet

Air Canada has a special fleet called Jetz. It's made up of Airbus A320 planes. But these aren't your usual planes.

Only 70 seats, all business class
140-160 seats on a similar aircraft

Charter Services

These planes are mainly used for charters:

Sports teams
Bands on tour
Big companies

They want a private jet feel but with the range and baggage space of a regular plane.

Regular Passengers

When these planes aren't booked for charters, regular passengers can snag a seat. It's a great deal for those who want a:

Quieter
More comfortable flight

Routes

The Jetz planes are often seen on routes connecting major Canadian cities:

Ottawa
Toronto
Montreal
Vancouver

They also fly to some popular leisure destinations like Palm Springs.

Toronto Pearson International Airport is a big hub for these flights. It's a key spot for Air Canada's premium travel network.

Why These Routes?

The routes make sense for a few reasons:

Connect important business hubs:
- Great for people in finance, law, or consulting who value time over cheap fares.
Flexible schedule:
- The planes can be used for charters one day and then switched to regular flights the next.
- Helps with peak demand or maintenance issues.

Business and Leisure

But is this all about business? Not quite. Flights to Palm Springs show that there's a place for leisure too. It's a nice mix of business and pleasure.

Plus, the quick turnaround times mean the planes can be used efficiently.
