Ski bums get ready.
Next winter, it will be easier to hit the fresh powder on the slopes of Hokkaido for those coming from North America, thanks to new Air Canada service to New Chitose Airport (CTS) — which serves Sapporo, the capital of Japan's northernmost island — from Vancouver International Airport (YVR).
"Leveraging Vancouver's geographic proximity, Air Canada's new flights provide the fastest way to reach Sapporo, saving more than two hours travel time each way," said Mark Galardo, the chief commercial officer of Air Canada, in a statement. "For our customers in Hokkaido, Air Canada's new flights provide the only non-stop and the fastest way to reach the North American continent."
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on The Points Guy Articles.
