Air Canada Rouge Lawsuits & Claims

Air Canada Rouge's recent incidents and investigations

With much less frequent flights than its leading airline, there are fewer incidents to report about Air Canada Rouge. One notable incident happened on January 31, 2025, just two days after an American Airlines passenger jet collided with an Army helicopter over the Potomac River.

An Air Canada Rouge flight was on the way from Tampa to Toronto, Canada, when oxygen masks were deployed mid-flight. The Airbus 319-100 landed safely back in Tampa. According to The Aviation Herald, passengers reported smoke and strong fumes in the cabin, which caused eye, nose, and throat irritation.

Even with smaller airlines with few reported statistics on accidents and crashes, it is never too early to be knowledgeable about your rights as a passenger. With Air Canada Rouge expanding its fleet soon, there would be more flights and passengers to leisure destinations. International passengers boarding these flights will be protected by the Montreal Convention, which has established airline liability for deaths and injuries if an accident occurs onboard.
