Jaunted

There’s less seats in Premium Economy as well, as Air Canada is quick to boast that you’ll never be more than one seat away from the aisle. However, don’t think that that there aren’t middle seats—there are—as the cabin will do its thing in a two-four-two format across the plane. The in-flight stuff is improved as well, as Air Canada is promising to offer up premium meals as well as complimentary bar service. We’re not sure if that means that there’s some kind of in-flight bartender, but whatever it is exactly—we’ll take it. Amenity kits, hot towels, and a larger pillow round out the in-flight options. At the airport things are improved too, as priority check-in and a pair of checked bags are included options.

Just keep your seat belts fastened, as it’s going to be a little bit of time before these new seats are up and running. Montreal to Paris will first score the new seats, and they’re shooting to get it done on July 11.

Oh—one more thing. Air Canada is also extending these new seats over to their new low cost carrier as well, as Premium rouge will be available starting July 1 on the routes like Toronto to Athens, Toronto to Venice, Montreal to Athens, and Toronto to Edinburgh.
