Air Canada is putting its fleet of Business Class Jetz charter aircrafts, which are normally reserved for professional sports teams, musical performers and corporations, to good use. The airline has recently announced it will make the aircrafts available to customers for commercial flights.
Each of the airline’s four Airbus A319 Jetz aircrafts is configured with only 58 standard Business Class seats, which equals to less than half the normal number of seats on a regular aircraft, providing an elevated level of comfort and service.
The 58 seats found aboard the A319 Jetz aircraft fill the entire cabin, meaning travellers can expect to find between 1 and 1.2 metres of space between each seat, a far cry from the cramped seating arrangements found on normal aircrafts. The repurposed aircraft also features four facing seats with a table in the middle that can be booked for families and friends travelling together, and complimentary iPads for entertainment.
‘Air Canada is very pleased to offer its customers a unique opportunity to travel like a pro athlete or a VIP and experience our premium Jetz service. Customers booking on a Jetz flight will enjoy such amenities as its all-Business Class seating configuration, upgraded meal service, and shorter boarding and deplaning times,’ said Mark Galardo, Vice President of Network Planning and Alliances at Air Canada.
Escape in comfort this winter as we make our fleet of Air Canada Jetz aircraft available to you. The spacious cabin with only 58 seats offers extra comfort and more personal space. Experience Air Canada Jetz on select routes, starting December 12.
