History


ACE Aviation Holdings was created as Air Canada emerged from bankruptcy in 2004;[6][7] By the end of 2005, ACE completed restructuring and achieved reduced costs through outsourcing, automation and process simplification.[8] One of the more significant changes was the merging of its six small airlines into Air Canada and Air Canada Jazz. ACE was not only a solution to Air Canada's bankruptcy, but also a strategic move by Robert Milton to create a portfolio of independent air transportation services companies out of what was Air Canada.[9]

Among the companies in addition to Air Canada which was taken public after formation of ACE was the frequent flyer program Aeroplan.[10] Aeroplan's initial public offering valued the company at US$2 billion, which was several times the valuation of the airline itself.[10]

In 2005, ACE contributed US$75 million in equity investment to the merger of America West Holdings and US Airways Group, which resulted in US Airways emerging from its second bankruptcy.[11]

In 2008, ACE completed its divestment of Aeroplan and Air Canada's regional airline affiliate, Jazz.[12] After these divestments, ACE retained a 75% stake in Air Canada and a 23% stake in Air Canada Technical Services.[12]

On May 9, 2012, the company received a certificate of intent to dissolve, marking the end of any future activities by the company.[13]

The company planned a wind up and distribution of its assets back to its shareholders by no earlier than mid-2013. While all of the core aviation assets have been disposed of, the corporate website continues to operate until all assets are fully disposed of. The company no longer has a board and executives, with all liquidation being managed by outside party Ernst & Young. As of 31 December 2019, filings state that ACE Aviation Holdings consisted of only cash and cash equivalents amounting to a total of CA$6,7 million.[5]
