[SeatBackForward]

Dubai, UAE, July 12, 2022 – Emirates and Air Canada today announced the signing of a strategic partnership agreement that will create more options for customers when travelling on the carriers’ networks while also enhancing the customer experience throughout the journey.

Emirates and Air Canada intend to establish a codeshare relationship later in 2022 that will offer enhanced consumer travel choices for Air Canada customers to travel to the United Arab Emirates and to destinations beyond Dubai. Emirates customers will also enjoy an enhanced travel experience when travelling to Toronto or to key destinations across the Air Canada network. Customers will have the ability to book connecting travel between both airlines’ networks with the ease of a single ticket, seamless connectivity at the carriers’ respective global hubs and baggage transfers to their final destinations.

It will be interesting to see if you'll be able to redeem Aeroplan points for Emirates flights, and if so, what the availability is like.

I say this because Aeroplan no longer adds carrier charges on any partner airline award bookings. You just pay a CAD39 partner award booking fee instead.

Saw an article today stating that Emirates and Air Canada are in the process of sorting out a reciprocal FF program and benefits.
Might be one to check out I think
