Starting April 2, 2025, Air Canada will begin non-stop service between YVR and Manila Ninoy Aquino International Airport (MNL) in the Philippines.
The new service was announced on December 5, during the Government of Canada’s Team Canada Trade Mission, celebrating 75 years of Canada-Philippines diplomatic relations.
The new service to Manila is Air Canada’s third Southeast Asia destination launched in the last two years. Building off recent additional service to Singapore and Bangkok, the new Vancouver-Manila route allows Air Canada to offer more than 180 weekly flights between Canada and the Pacific next summer, doubling its seat capacity over the Pacific since 2022.
The new route will operate four times weekly, using the airline’s flagship Dreamliner aircraft. It will be Air Canada’s 12th route in its transpacific network from Vancouver, which includes Japan, South Korea, the People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong SAR, Thailand, Singapore, Australia and New Zealand, leveraging Vancouver’s geographic position as the closest major North American city to Asia.
Flights from Canada to Manila can be booked on aircanada.com, through Air Canada’s contact centres, and through travel agents.
