MONTREAL — Air Transat is resuming its domestic schedule for summer 2022, with an eye to not only servicing a number of Canadian routes, but also to connecting more travellers to its international network for the busy months ahead.
The airline’s Toronto-Vancouver and Toronto-Calgary flights all started yesterday, May 1. Meanwhile the Vancouver-Montreal flights start today, May 2. And Calgary-Montreal service starts tomorrow, May 3.
Air Transat opened the books on its summer 2022 international schedule in March. At the height of the 2022 season, Air Transat will operate more than 250 direct flights weekly on 69 direct routes.
Air Transat’s international flights operate out of Toronto and Montreal, plus Paris and London are available from Quebec City.
From Toronto, Air Transat will serve 15 European cities for summer 2022. Flights to Amsterdam, Athens, Barcelona, Dublin, Lamezia, Paris, Rome, Venice and Zagreb, plus Glasgow, Lisbon, London, Manchester and Porto. Air Transat will also fly to Faro year-round.
