Air Canada Starts San Antonio–Toronto Nonstop
Air Canada will begin four weekly nonstop A220-300 flights linking San Antonio and Toronto from May 1, 2026.
Air Canada is introducing a new San Antonio Toronto nonstop service that begins on May 1, 2026, creating the first-ever direct link between San Antonio International Airport (SAT) and Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ). The route will operate four times weekly on Airbus A220-300 aircraft and offers 137 seats per flight, aimed at both business and leisure travelers looking for a simple cross-border connection.
The airline says the schedule is designed to feed into Air Canada’s transcontinental and international network at YYZ, improving access to Canadian destinations and onward connections. The A220-300 is optimized for short- to medium-haul city pairs and provides a modern cabin experience for travelers on the approximately regional-length hop between Texas and Ontario.

Key facts travelers should know include aircraft type, frequency and seat count; the service is pitched as a convenient option for weekend breaks, business trips and family visits. With four weekly rotations and 137 seats per flight, the new link expands travel options directly between SAT and YYZ without a connection.
