So, just heard Air Canada's looking to start flights to Ho Chi Minh City in 2027. That's pretty big, right? They've got this new air transport agreement with Vietnam allowing nonstop flights, both passenger and cargo. But here's the thing-they haven't said which Canadian city they'll fly from or how often.
Vietnamese community in Canada is huge, like 275,000 people, so there's definitely a demand. Plus, trade between the two countries is on the rise. I think using a Boeing 787-9 seems like a safe bet, especially since they use it for other long-haul routes in Southeast Asia.
But what do you guys think? Which Canadian city should be their gateway? Vancouver seems like a logical choice, but maybe Toronto? And do you think a Vietnamese airline will enter the scene too? That could make things interesting. Curious to hear your thoughts on this potential new route.
