Air Canada will launch three-weekly nonstop service between Montréal-Trudeau Airport (YUL) and Palma de Mallorca Airport (PMI) on June 17, 2026, operated by Boeing 787-8 as flight AC924. The seasonal route runs through October 23, 2026, making Air Canada only the second North American carrier to serve the Balearic island nonstop after United Airlines.
The launch marks the first-ever scheduled air service from Canada to Mallorca, one of the Mediterranean's most visited leisure destinations. Aviation Week notes Air Canada is the second North American airline on the route and highlights the leisure-market positioning.
The aircraft choice is notable: the route was originally planned to operate with an Airbus A321XLR, but was revised to the larger Boeing 787-8 following delivery schedule changes, as confirmed by both the Air Canada press release and Simple Flying. The switch increases seat capacity on the approximately 3,700-mile (3,200 nm) route.
The Montreal–Palma launch is part of Air Canada's summer 2026 Mediterranean expansion from its YUL hub, which also includes the new Catania service and returning seasonal European routes. PAX News confirms the June 17 date, schedule, and aircraft type consistent with the official announcement. The route targets Quebec leisure travelers and US passengers connecting through Montreal.
