MONTREAL – Air Canada is adding flights to Latin America as it looks to diversify its global network this winter.

The move comes as Canadians shun travel to the U.S. amid President Donald Trump’s imposition of trade tariffs and his talk of Canada becoming the 51st state.

Air Canada says it will resume non-stop service to Lima, Peru, this winter with twice weekly flights from both Montreal and Toronto.

It’s also adding three new routes to Central America and Mexico including, Montreal-Belize, Toronto-Puerto Escondido, and Vancouver-Tepic, Riviera Nayarit.

The airline says it’s capitalizing on strong demand to vacation destinations in South and Central America and in Mexico’s Oaxaca and Pacific coast areas.

Air Canada plans to offer more than 55 daily flights to 52 destinations in Latin America and the Caribbean this winter.
