Air Canada will suspend flights to and from India between June 1 and Sept-ember 30, a senior official of the airline said last week.
This is a temporary suspension as the load factor from Canada to India during this period is low, Geoffrey Beckett, Air Canadas general manager for India, told a news conference in New Delhi.
He said Air Canada started operations to Delhi in November 1993, before which it flew to Mumbai.

An Air Canada statement said that during the suspension, the airline would work with its alliance partners, United Airlines and Lufthansa, to provide Canada-bound passengers convenient connections via London and Frankfurt.
It added that passengers already booked to travel on Air Canada during the suspension period would be switched to flights of these airlines.
