Yes. Regulations governing credit card usage apply to all online transactions. The security of your credit card transaction on aircanadavacations.com is protected by SSL technology protocols and normal private network security systems. SSL technology scrambles your credit card information BEFORE it even gets to the net. This renders internet purchases as safe as telephone purchases.
