Air Canada will expand its Intermodal strategy in Europe to include Italy, Spain, and Britain while launching its first Air-to-Rail connections in Asia within South Korea.

 

Intermodal Strategy

Air Canada has announced it is expanding its intermodal strategy across Europe to include Italy, Spain, and Britain. It will also expand to Asia, starting with South Korea. Previously, the airline only offered intermodal travel in France, Germany, Switzerland, and Austria. Customers can now book onward land connections across these countries, simplifying their travel plans.

 

Air Canada’s partnership with AccessRail facilitates this new extension, enabling customers to book connections in more countries on their website. Furthermore, rebooking their land segments will assist customers experiencing any flight disruption.

 

Mark Galardo, Executive Vice President of Revenue and Network Planning at Air Canada commented on the expansion, saying:

“The expanded offer will make it simple for our customers flying to and from our international hubs to add convenient rail or bus connections on a single itinerary. Our intermodal connections not only provide more choice but also make available sustainable options for short-haul segments of their journey.”

Details of new intermodal strategies

 

Air Canada will be flying to two Italian airports, Rome and Milan. Customers can then connect to the state-owned railway of Italy, Trenitalia, to continue their journey. In Spain, Air Canada will operate in Barcelona and Madrid, where customers can use the transport provider Renfe to reach up to 24 different destinations. Similarly, in Britain, customers can use one of the four rail companies that offer connections to various destinations.

Regarding their Asian expansion, Air Canada will fly to Seoul, where customers can book connections through KORAIL’s KTX Trains to continue their journey. They will offer up to 8 destinations.

The new intermodal strategy aims to enhance the convenience and simplicity of connections for travellers. It creates fresh chances to discover diverse locations without any difficulties.

Air Canada today announced it is extending its intermodal strategy across Europe to include Italy, Spain, Britain as well as to Asia, with its first operator in South Korea.
