Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge Toronto Transborder

Air Canada operates three airport lounges at Toronto-Pearson Airport (YYZ) – one each for international, domestic, and US flights. On our way to Seattle, we visited the Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge Toronto Transborder. Read our review to find out how we spent our time there and what the lounge had to offer.

Where is the Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge Toronto Transborder located?

After our arrival with Air Canada from Munich,We cleared immigration into the USA and, after customs, took the escalator on the right down to the departures area. Once there, we searched in vain for a sign to the lounge. Only after asking did we find the elevator and thus the entrance. We took the elevator to the fourth floor, where we arrived directly at the reception desk of the Air Canada Maple Lounge.

Who has access to the Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge Toronto Transborder?

The access requirements for the Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounges are the same as for all other Star Alliance lounges. Therefore, Air Canada Business Class passengers flying on the same day have access to the lounge. Star Alliance Gold members flying on the same day with another Star Alliance airline also have access to the Maple Leaf Lounge and may bring one guest.

What are the amenities of the Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge Toronto Transborder?

The Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge at Toronto Airport is a comfortable size. Immediately after the reception area, the lounge curves out to the left and right. To the left is a smaller seating area with a beverage buffet and the business center. To the right is the much larger seating area with several seating groups. Along the window front, there are gray leather seats arranged in groups of four, each with a table. Power outlets are readily available almost everywhere. Between the buffet and the window is a slightly elevated seating area with comfortable armchairs in reddish tones. There is also a TV room and a games room. However, only one TV was working during our visit.

What food and drinks are available in the Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge Toronto Transborder?

Let's start with the straightforward part: the food in the Air Canada Maple Leaf Transborder Lounge at Toronto Airport. During our visit, they offered two different green salads with carrots and pickles, pea soup, and nachos with salsa. Since we had eaten well on our business class flight from Munich to Toronto, we only had some nachos.

The selection of drinks was somewhat more extensive. At a tap system, for example, I had a choice of four different beers, including Guinness and Coors. Additionally, various canned soft drinks like ginger ale and cola were available in a large refrigerator. If you prefer, you can also get a coffee from a vending machine.

After enjoying the drinks, we left the Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge near the F gates at Toronto Airport. It was time for our business class connecting flight to Seattle.
