Our Vision

CanAm: A Thoughtful New Chapter in Transatlantic Air Travel

CanAm introduces a refined new travel niche: direct, comfortable connections between the Canary Islands and the United States of America. Headquartered in the Canaries, this visionary airline is designed not just to fly — but to connect cultures, landscapes, and people with elegance and intent.

With CanAm, the Canary Islands are no longer a stopover or an afterthought — they are a destination in their own right, directly linked to North America and beyond. Our mission is to quietly but decisively place the Canary Islands on the international map through world-class long-haul service, operated from the islands themselves.

A New Standard for Long-Haul to the Canary Islands
At CanAm, we aspire to become the preferred choice for long-distance travel to the Canaries and beyond — not through being the cheapest or gimmicks, but through an unrelenting focus on comfort and service.

We believe that travelers — especially in recent years — have been asked to accept too much: long queues, delayed flights, misplaced luggage, and impersonal service. What was once a premium experience has often been reduced to a series of compromises. Even the basics — a warm meal, a bottle of water, a helpful voice on the line — have become rare luxuries.

CanAm intends to change that: Gently, but decisively!

As your journey draws closer to its destination, we like to think of those final hours not as a waiting game — but as a warm introduction.

To help you arrive already feeling a little at home, we’ll show you beautifully curated destination videos — real footage captured by HD drones flying over the Canary Islands’ most stunning spots. Think of it as a visual appetizer for the adventure ahead.

Of course, no flight worth remembering is complete without a proper “wine and dine above the clouds” experience — an homage to the golden days of air travel, when the meal wasn’t just a tray, but more an over the clouds experience. Our onboard menu draws inspiration from Canarian and Spanish cuisine, freshly prepared by our dedicated catering team in Las Palmas. It’s flavorful, thoughtful, and — dare we say — pleasantly surprising with special aspect on health, flight comfort and without allergenes.

And we won’t stop there. Expect a few more clever little surprises along the way — all thoughtfully designed to do one thing: make the flight feel shorter. Much shorter. (Time flies when you’re treated well.)

And by the way, at CanAm, we don’t do “Economy”.
We call it Discovery Class — because that’s exactly what your journey should feel like.

So go ahead: lean back, exhale, and enjoy the view. You’re in good hands.

We think of building this new airline by the imagination the famous aviator,
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry provided us with:


A pile of stones ceases being just a pile of stones
the very moment when someone looking at that pile of stones
visualizes the image of a cathedral.
