Air Canada
Founded in 1937, Air Canada is the flag carrier and the largest airline for passenger aviation in Canada. With a rich corporate history, Air Canada went through many challenging and transformative times. For instance, the company filed bankruptcy in 2004 and started restructuring the company to enhance its resilience. Since then, the company demonstrated a remarkable growth path. Passenger operating revenue of Air Canada went up steadily throughout recent years, generating over billion Canadian dollars in 2019. Passengers carried by Air Canada increased similarly over the recent years. In 2019, the airline transported million travelers. Based on market value, Air Canada was the 16th largest airline worldwide as of May 2020.
Aviation in Canada
The Canadian aviation industry encompasses a considerably large market with participant firms, such as Air Canada, WestJet, Porter Airlines and Flair Airlines. Measured by the passenger and freight traffic, Vancouver, Toronto, Calgary and Edmonton airports are the leading airports in Canada. In 2019, Toronto Pearson International was the leading airport in Canada by the number of passengers handled. During recent years, there seems to be a decline in the quality of air services in Canada. For example, in a survey carried out in 2017, percent of respondents in Canada stated that the airline service quality in Canada has worsened. The concerns of people surveyed could be also demonstrated by the fact that Canadian air transport services were not ranked as one of the most efficient one worldwide in 2019.
