MONTREAL — Air Canada will go year-round between Montreal and Toulouse starting June 4, 2020, with five flights weekly.

Flights will be operated with the airline’s A330-300 fleet with 292 seats across Signature Class, Premium Economy and Economy cabins. Introductory fares start from $729 roundtrip, all-in.

“Air Canada is very pleased to offer nonstop, year-round flights linking Montreal and Toulouse,” says Air Canada’s President and CEO, Calin Rovinescu. “Combined with our recently announced non-stop flights between Montreal and Seattle, the world’s other major aerospace hub, starting next year, we are helping solidify Quebec’s position as a global player in the aerospace industry, which will help maintain and encourage the growth of high-skilled, high-paying jobs in the sector.”

The new route is Air Canada’s sixth destination in continental France and will be the only year-round service to southwest France from Canada, he added.
