Air Transat Increases Summer Service to Europe

Air Transat has expanded its summer 2018 Europe program by adding direct flights to nine destinations in France, Spain, Portugal, Ireland and Israel.

This is thanks to the addition of an Airbus A330 to its fleet.

“The addition of this aircraft next summer allows us to strengthen our presence in key destinations in Europe,” says Annick Guérard, president and general manager of Transat Tours Canada. “Furthermore, Air Transat was the first airline to offer a direct flight between Montreal and Tel Aviv, and we are pleased to add a third flight a week next summer.”

In France, Air Transat has added direct flights from Montreal to Paris (for a total of 13 flights a week), Toulouse (for a total of four flights a week), Bordeaux (for a total of three flights a week) and Nantes (for a total of three flights a week).

Inaugurated as an Air Transat destination in the summer of 2017, Tel Aviv has been a great success, prompting the airline to offer it three times a week from Montreal as of next summer.

Also out of Montreal, Air Transat is adding direct flights to Spain and Portugal – three flights a week to both Madrid and Malaga, and five flights a week to Lisbon.

Lovers of Ireland will also be happy to learn that passengers will be able to fly to Dublin from Toronto with five direct flights a week.
