Tango Airlines
Tango Airlines, launched in 2001, currently offers no-frills, value-focused service to select destinations in Canada and the U.S. through a simplified fare structure offering over 80 per cent off full economy fares with minimum restrictions.
Tango Airlines quickly established itself as an industry model emulated by other international airlines in the growing low fare travel sector. It has led Air Canada's move to simplify travel and offer more flexibility through one way pricing, exclusively e-ticketing, online purchasing, paid advance seat selection, online itinerary changes and in-flight snacks for purchase, the precursor to Air Canada's popular new onboard restaurant service.
"For the past two years the Tango brand has thrived well beyond our expectations and is now recognized by consumers as a truly competitive low fare offering by Air Canada," said Montie Brewer, Executive Vice President, Commercial. "The time is now right to broaden the Tango Airlines brand's appeal.
In today's low fare marketplace, aircanada.com is offering much of Tango Airlines pricing and simplicity, and Air Canada has expanded on Tango Airlines successful in- flight snacks for sale program by offering restaurant quality meals for purchase.
Expanding the availability of Tango's simple, low fares throughout the Air Canada network is the next logical step as we continue to lower our cost base through restructuring and build on strong consumer response to our permanently low domestic fares at aircanada.com.
