Air Canada to end daily flights to India
Washington:
Citing insufficient demand for the Canada-India
route, the Air Canada has announced plans to discontinue
its daily flights to India starting in May. Canada's
leading carrier currently offers one daily flight
from Toronto to New Delhi, with a stopover in Zurich,
but it has been unable to break even on the route,
particularly during the summer. "Our financial goals
were not met because of the seasonal nature of traffic
to New Delhi, which did not enable us to maintain
profitable occupancy levels throughout the entire
year," The Nation quoted Air Canada spokesman John
Reber as saying in an interview with an international
news agency. He added: "We have tried several times
over the past 20 years to make service between Canada
and India work, ... but unfortunately we haven't found
the right formula yet."
