flights from Toronto to Shanghai

Air Canada has officially brought back one of its longest and most highly anticipated routes from Toronto Pearson International Airport. Travelers can finally book direct flights from Toronto to Shanghai, bypassing exhausting multi-hour layovers. Operating four times a week on the ultra-modern Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, this 16-hour transpacific marathon connects Canada’s financial hub directly with China’s top commercial center—made even easier by China’s recent visa waiver for Canadian citizens. Here is a look inside the journey and how to lock in your seat.
