Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced on Friday the measures agreed by Canadian airlines in an attempt to contain the spread of the coronavirus, just when the launch of the vaccination campaign in that country suffered a new setback after receiving cuts to the expected doses.
Aeromexico detailed that its flights to Toronto would be suspended on February 8 and those to Montreal and Vancouver from February 10, while all would be resumed on April 30, according to a statement published on Friday night.
While the measure takes effect, Aeromexico will operate regular flights between the two countries to allow people to return to their destinations, it added.
