The service marks the first-ever scheduled flights from Canada to Sicily, according to the official Air Canada press release from September 2025. Air Canada becomes the fourth North American carrier to serve Sicily nonstop, joining Delta Air Lines, United Airlines, and Italian charter airline Neos.
Simple Flying reports roughly 18,000 round-trip local passengers flew between Canada and Catania in 2025, and Air Canada's entry brings total June 2026 round-trip capacity between North America and Sicily to 31,000 seats — a 25% year-over-year jump. The carrier also targets US passengers connecting through Montreal.
