We’re pleased to share that we've partnered with Hope Air, the only national charity providing free flights to low-income Canadians who must travel to specialist medical care that does not exist in their communities. Hope Air believes that where you live in Canada and how much money you make should not determine your ability to access our healthcare system. A free flight lets families focus on what is truly important – their health. Hope Air serves people from across Canada, of every age, with any illness. Since 1986, they have arranged over 150,000 flights. The Chelsea Hotel believes strongly in supporting our community, including providing hotel rooms and dining vouchers for Canadians travelling to Toronto for medical needs, through the Hope Air partnership. The hotel is delighted to be helping Hope Air in the delivery of its most important mission. 📷: Hope Air L to R: Mark Rubinstein, CEO, Hope Air, and Rob Housez, General Manager, Chelsea Hotel, Toronto.
