MONTREAL — Air Canada has once again extended its suspension of flights to and from Dubai (DXB) and Tel Aviv (TLV), until Sept. 7.
The situation in the Middle East has airlines closely monitoring service suspensions and restart dates.

1. Rebook the flight to the same destination on a later date with no additional fees
Passengers can retrieve their booking and choose an alternate travel date Sept. 8 – Dec. 15, 2026, at no cost, subject to availability in the cabin they originally purchased, for flights operated by Air Canada.
2. Rebook travel to another destination, with no additional fees
Passengers can retrieve their booking and change to an Air Canada flight to another destination in Europe, the U.K., India, or Africa for travel May 1 – Dec. 15, 2026.
