Air Transat Relaunches Most Summer Routes

Air Transat announced the relaunch for most of its routes for the summer season. In particular, the company is expanding service to Europe and continuing to develop its services in the U.S., in addition to offering flights to the South and within Canada. At the height of the summer season, Transat will operate more than 250 direct weekly flights on 69 direct routes.

"The numbers tell us clearly that with the gradual lifting of travel restrictions worldwide, people are more ready than ever to plan their next trip, whether to Europe, the U.S., Canada or to South destinations," said Joseph Adamo, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer, Transat. He continued: "The outlook for the summer season is favourable, and our abundant air offering, which includes the vast majority of our pre-pandemic destinations as well as exciting new routes, is enabling us to respond to the significant pent-up demand. This surge in demand has also allowed us to increase capacity on certain key routes between now and the end of the winter season."

Expanded Service to Europe

Beginning in APR, Air Transat will gradually resume its direct flights to 16 European destinations from YUL, including the new addition of service to AMS.

Customers will once again be able to travel non-stop to ATH, BSL, BCN, BRU, LGW, MAD, OPO, FCO and VCE, as well as to the French provinces, including BOD, LYS, MRS, NTE, NCE and TLS. In addition, the airline currently offers flights to AGP and LIS, as well as a daily service to CDG, which will increase to up to 14 flights per week during the summer.

From YQB, Air Transat will be the only airline to offer non-stop service to two European capitals: first, to CDG starting in early APR and, for the first time, to LGW in MAY.

From YYZ, Air Transat will serve 15 European cities this summer. Flights to AMS, ATH, BCN, DUB, SUF, CDG, FCO, VCE and ZAG will once again be offered, in addition to the flights currently operated to GLA, LIS, LGW, MAN and OPO. Furthermore, Air Transat will now fly to FAO year-round, "due to sustained demand for southern Portugal."
