Review: Air Canada Signature Suite Toronto

I recently had the chance to visit the Air Canada Signature Suite Toronto prior to an international flight on Air Canada Signature Class.

This exclusive premium lounge is reserved exclusively for select passengers travelling in Air Canada Signature Class. I had been keen to visit the Signature Suite ever since it opened in 2017, so I was delighted to finally have the opportunity to check it out.

Air Canada Signature Suite Toronto – Access

The Air Canada Signature Suite is situated within the international departures area of Toronto Pearson International Airport, next to Gate E77.

The moment you spot this gate, you’ll see a modest sign on the left pointing in the direction of the lounge area.

From here, you can take the elevator to the upper level, where the Signature Suite is positioned next to the Plaza Premium Lounge.

The Air Canada Signature Suite Toronto upholds a strict access protocol to maintain exclusivity.

Access is granted to passengers who are travelling on paid business class fares or those on an Aeroplan Business Class (Flexible) fare, en route to Europe, Asia, or South America.

Keep in mind that there are no guesting privileges, and you aren’t able to access the Signature Suite when travelling with Air Canada’s partner airlines, Aeroplan Business Class (Lowest) fares, eUpgrades, or operational upgrades.

Additionally, access is granted to holders of the exclusive American Express Air Canada Card, which is available by invitation only, who are travelling in any class of service. These cardholders are able to bring in one guest. 

In my case, I had managed to snag a favourably priced business class fare on Air Canada, partly for the purposes of sampling the Air Canada Signature Suite: Vancouver–Toronto–Barcelona on the outbound, followed by Amsterdam–Toronto on the return, for around $2,600 (CAD).

In terms of opening hours, the Air Canada Signature Suite Toronto is accessible daily from 6:30am until 11pm.
