Business Class
Business Class is Air Canada's premium product in North America, and is offered by Jazz (doing business as Air Canada Express) on the CRJ705. There are 10 seats (B/E Aerospace's Spectrum business class seat) covered in grey leather. Each seat is equipped with a 110V power outlet and personal audio/video on demand featuring Air Canada's enRoute ҽ inflight entertainment system. The CRJ705's galley is not equipped with ovens, therefore only cold meals are served.

On flights over 90 minutes, Jazz operates a buy on board service for Air Canada called Air Canada Express Café offering snacks for purchase.
