Finally, the airline will once again offer a selection of its most well-liked destinations in Mexico and the Caribbean with departures from Montreal, Quebec City, and Toronto, catering to the needs of Canadians seeking sand, sun, and sea.
“This flight programme is perfectly in line with our mission, which is to encourage discovery and foster openness, whatever the destination or the reason for travelling,” said Michèle Barre, Vice-President, Network, Revenue Management and Pricing, Air Transat.
“From an operational standpoint, the more efficient use of our aircraft allows us to increase the frequency of flights and regain a capacity similar to what we had prior to the pandemic.”
