If you're flying with Air Canada and want to access one of their airport lounges, you have a few options.

If you have Air Canada Altitude status, you may be able to access the lounge for free, depending on your level of status. Super Elite 100K members and Elite 75K members, for example, have access to Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounges and Star Alliance lounges, as well as priority security clearance and boarding.

If you don't have status with Air Canada, you can still purchase lounge access for a fee. Depending on the lounge you want to access, prices may vary, but you can expect to pay around $50-$60 CAD per visit. You can purchase lounge access at the airport on the day of your flight or online in advance.

If you're a frequent traveler, you may want to consider getting a credit card that offers lounge access as a perk. Some of the best credit cards for lounge access include the American Express Platinum Card and the Chase Sapphire Reserve. These cards come with a variety of other benefits as well, such as travel insurance and rewards points.
