I had booked and paid a business class ticket to Frankfurt in C class, and I was denied entry to the signature lounge. The guy at the desk told me I had to have a full business class ticket, i.e. J, not C. Did he erroneously refuse me, or have the requirements changed since this article was written? Thank you very much for your reply.
If you paid for the ticket in cash (not points), then you should have been granted access.
Would a passenger with a business flex reward to Europe that has a domestic stop (because no direct flight exists) be able to access this lounge? Eg for a YYZ-YUL-Europe flight?
Unfortunately no, as the Signature Suite is located in YYZ international departures.
If I have a business flex award, it still has to be flying on AC Metal correct? Ex: a business flex award on EVA Air out of YVR would not allow me access.
That’s correct – You’ll need to be on an Air Canada flight to have access.
Thank you! Is this available for revenue ticket on Swiss Air?
You have to be on Air Canada in order to access this lounge.
Thanks for the article TJ! Is this also available for paid codeshare flights through AC?
Purchased a paid Z from Houston to Toronto (AC), then P from Toronto to Frankfurt (Lufthansa).
Curious if they’ll honour the P fare on Frankfurt given it’s purchased through AC?
P on Lufthansa.*
Meh. I think I prefer to go to the Centurion lounges. A few cocktails…pffft. Cute.
Thank God!! I could not bare another day in the Maple Leaf Lounge. The less-desirables they let in sometimes is unbelievable . At least with the Signature Suite there is slightly better “screening”, so only the proper people are allowed in. It is still not perfect. Every so often some common person sneaks in.
I agree. The last time I used the Maple leaf Lounge it had the feel of a British Working Mens Club on a Saturday night. The only thing missing was the Bingo Caller. It was noisy, over crowded and untidy. My last trip, I used the signature lounge. Only ten people in there at lunchtime. It was heaven.
Wonder if one could book a business class flexible, access the Signature suite very early, enjoy it wares, depart the suite and then cancel your award prior to the two hour window…just wondering..
That unfortunately looks more likely. It was very dark when I was there.
Glad to see the lounges are reopening. On a less exclusive, but related, note any word on when the Air Canada Cafe at Pearson will be reopening? I was off to YHZ a few weeks back, and the Cafe still looked closed at that time. It was 6:15am so maybe that played a part, but thought I’d ask.
I was in Air Canada Cafe in late January and enjoyed fresh-squeezed orange juice there. So yes, it has been opening for quite a while.
Thanks for the update. Maybe I was there too early. Will be there next week and will check it out!
My understanding is that the AC Cafe was recently affected by water damage from the Plaza Premium Lounge upstairs and so has temporarily closed. Hopefully it’ll reopen soon!
