Air Canada has extended its Montréal-Guatemala City service through summer 2027 and confirmed its Toronto-Guatemala City route as a year-round service, offering UK travellers convenient one-stop connections to Guatemala through either Canadian hub. During the winter season, the extended and expanded service is particularly well timed for passengers connecting via London Heathrow, with a connection time of just over two hours* through Montréal, along with additional options from Manchester, Edinburgh and Dublin.
