"We are excited to relaunch another key dimension of our Signature Service for international customers, anchored by our industry-leading Air Canada Signature Suite at Toronto's Pearson Airport. As we continue to restart major international routes., we look forward to welcoming our customers to Toronto Pearson with this one-of-a-kind premium airport experience in Canada, in partnership with one of the most iconic luxury car brands," said Scott O'Leary, Vice President, Loyalty & Product at Air Canada.

It is not specified at this time whether it will be restricted to members to the Aeroplan loyalty program or others, the only discriminating factor is whether one is traveling in the business class of the Canadian flag carrier.
