MONTREAL — Air Transat is going year-round with its Montreal-Fort-de-France route.
As the capital of Martinique, Fort-de-France is known for its colonial architecture, bustling markets and beautiful beaches.
Said Sebastian Ponce, Transat’s Chief Revenue Officer: “Following the recent addition of Liberia, Costa Rica, to our summer destinations, we are now annualizing our route to Fort-de-France. This strengthens our presence in the Caribbean and optimizes the use of our fleet.”
In addition to winter flights offered up to four times a week between Montreal and Fort-de-France, a summer flight has been added every Saturday, from June 7 to Oct. 25, 2025.
According to Bénédicte di Géronimo, President of the Martinique Tourism Authority, the new year-round service will strengthen Martinique’s ties with Quebec, solidifying Canada as the island’s top international tourism market.
“This aligns with our diversification strategy, and we’ll continue working closely with Air Transat to develop air links, especially during the low season, as demand is strong year-round. Our French-speaking Caribbean destination offers Quebec visitors much to enjoy, all year long,” said di Géronimo.
