Air Canada has been voted `Best Business Class
to Canada` by readers of Business Traveler International Magazine. The new
category of `Best Business Class to Canada` in the magazine`s 2000 readers`
survey replaces the `Best Airline for Travel to Canada` category, which Air
Canada has won for the past eight years. The award winners were announced at a
luncheon in New York City today.

“Again this year, we are very honoured to be recognized by our most
discerning customers,” said Marc Rosenberg, Vice-President, Sales and Product
Distribution. “We take pride in offering our business customers a leading-
edge, superior product, and we thank them for having chosen Air Canada for so
many years.”

The awards are based on an annual survey of more than 2,000 Business
Traveler International readers. In addition to Air Canada`s `Best Business
Class to Canada` award, Star Alliance carriers earned recognition in a total
of 11 categories. Complete results of this year`s reader survey appear in the
magazine`s December/January issue.

Air Canada, together with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Canadian Airlines,
offers travellers more than 300 flights per day from 55 U.S. destinations to
Canada.

Earlier in the year, Canadian Airlines was voted `Best North American
Airline` in the 2000 OAG (Official Airline Guide) Airline of the Year Awards.
