Air Canada has no schedule for starting to fly from Toronto’s downtown airport after failing to reach a deal with the terminal operator in time for the February launch it had planned.

The country’s No. 1 airline said negotiations are continuing with City Centre Terminal Corporation to lease space at Billy Bishop Airport, but it would not identify the issues in contention.

Billy Bishop is a small airport on Toronto Island in Lake Ontario, close to the city’s core.

“We are not in a position to confirm a revised timeline for start-up, but suffice it to say we look forward to resuming service as soon as possible,” Air Canada spokesman Peter Fitzpatrick said.
