Period

1987 -

Canada

Trans Canada Airlines (TCA) was formed by the Canadian National Railways. They launched their first flight on September 1, 1937, between Vancouver and Seattle. Throughout the next 25 years, TCA became Canada's national airline, and on January 1, 1965, TCA changed their name to Air Canada. This uniform came out on Air Canada's 50th Anniversary year, which was celebrated in 1987. The collection was designed by Montreal couturier Leo Chevalier and was manufactured entirely in Canada. Its style featured the classic double-breasted look, in navy blue and burgundy. Different coloured shirts and ties were worn depending on the person's position. Male flight attendant's wore a white shirt with a burgundy and navy striped tie. They also had the option of wearing a double breasted blazer or a long sleeved cardigan or a sleeveless vest in navy blue with burgundy trim.
