Air Canada eyes India with new planes

Toronto: Air Canada will have more flexibility next year when it takes delivery of its Boeing 777 planes, says Air Canada chairman Robert Milton.
The new aircraft will have a longer range, allowing Air Canada to fly to more destinations non-stop, Mr. Milton said today in Toronto at a transportation conference sponsored by RBC Dominion Securities Inc.
For example, the country's largest airline is considering introducing non-stop service from Toronto to Mumbai. Mr. Milton said that on top of the passenger fees, Air Canada would benefit from being able to carry cargo to and from India.
