Montreal<\/span><\/span>, December 5, 2023<\/span><\/span>, CNW<\/strong> – Air Canada (Toronto: AC<\/a>)<\/strong> today announced new air-to-rail booking options for customers to connect at European airports with four major passenger rail systems, making it convenient to explore the continent. Through new railway and distribution partnerships, Air Canada customers, when purchasing flights, can now also easily book onward rail trips to a multitude of destinations throughout France<\/span>, Germany<\/span>, Switzerland<\/span>, and Austria<\/span> to create a seamless travel itinerary.<\/p>\n

With the launch of Air Canada’s European intermodal initiative, customers can now, while purchasing an Air Canada flight, at the same time book rail travel from European airports. Through the airline’s partnership with Lufthansa Express Rail Product and new collaborations with AccesRail & WorldTicket, customers can use a streamlined booking process to create a seamless travel itinerary that connects their flight with trips on trains operated by France’s<\/span> TGV-SNCF Voyageurs, Germany’s<\/span> Deutsche Bahn, Swiss Federal Railways or \u00d6BB, the national railway of Austria<\/span>.<\/p>\n

For added convenience, customers can check in for all segments of their trip prior to departure, avoiding the need to obtain a train ticket at the station. As well, customers experiencing any flight disruption will have both their air and rail segments rebooked to provide peace of mind.<\/p>\n
