Non-Stop London To Montreal Flights Coming

As of this summer, travellers will be able to fly non-stop from London to Montreal with Air Canada.

Air Canada announced the permanent year-round service on Wednesday as part of a strategic expansion of its domestic network.

"With the continued growth in the Southern Ontario market, we see the opportunity to add new non-stop services and provide additional convenient travel options to cities across Atlantic Canada as well several European destinations," said Benjamin Smith, president of Passenger Airlines at Air Canada.

The airline said the flights are timed to offer connections to and from Atlantic Canada and European destinations including Brussels, Rome, Geneva, Barcelona, Lisbon, and Paris.

"This was the result of strong passenger demand, and our partnership with Air Canada, dedicated to providing London with the travel options they have been asking for, with service to a major Canadian hub," said Lauren Stafford, business development manager for the London International Airport.

The daily flights will depart Montreal at 1:50pm and arrive in London at 3:37pm and will depart London at 3:20pm and arrive in Montreal at 4:49pm.

The new regional non-stop flights will begin on July 2.

Tickets, including some at an introductory promotional rate, are available for purchase now at aircanada.com, the Air Canada app, and through travel agents.
