We are excited to announce our partnership with the charity Dreams Take Flight. Dreams Take Flight is a non-profit organization made up of volunteers from the Air Canada employees, retirees and community volunteers in Canada and the United States. Each year they bring an aircraft of local deserving children to Disney World to experience an amazingly magical day. To date, more than 2600 children have joined experience a fun-filled adventure at the Magic Kingdom in Orlando! In support of their 2023 flight ticket proceeds will be donated to Dreams Take Flight!

About Dreams Take Flight
Dreams Take Flight stretches children’s minds. As poet Oliver Wendell Holmes wrote, “One’s mind, once stretched by a new idea, never regains its original dimensions.”
In 1989, several Air Canada employees in Toronto planned a trip-of-a-lifetime. They flew 70 special needs children on a DC-9 aircraft to Walt Disney World in Florida.
By 1997, the Dreams Take Flight charity had expanded across Canada.
For a very long and exciting day, deserving children live an adventure in a world-renowned theme park in California or Florida. All expenses paid—thanks to sponsors and volunteers.
When they land back home, their minds are stretched to new dimensions. They see new possibilities.
