Access to the Air Canada Café is reserved for premium passengers and elite status members traveling on departing domestic or transborder flights. In 2026, eligible guests include those flying in Business Class, Aeroplan 50K, 75K, and Super Elite members, and Star Alliance Gold members. Additionally, primary cardholders of premium Aeroplan co-branded credit cards often have access as part of their card benefits. The Café is a unique concept distinct from the standard Maple Leaf Lounges, focusing on a "grab-and-go" style with barista-made specialty coffees, fresh juices, and light snacks inspired by Montreal’s vibrant coffee culture. To enter, guests simply scan their digital boarding pass at the eGates. As of 2026, Air Canada has expanded this concept to major hubs like Montreal-Trudeau (YUL) and Toronto Pearson (YYZ), providing a high-tech, productive environment with power at every seat, specifically tailored for business travelers who want to maximize their time before boarding.
