Air Canada is to launch a new route between Porto in Portugal and Montréal as part of its expanded 2025 transatlantic schedule.
The North American carrier will launch the Porto-Montréal route on 5 June. It will be the first time Air Canada has flown to Portugal’s second city and the seasonal service will operate on three days per week this summer until 30 September.
The new route, which departs Porto on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday, will complement Air Canada’s existing services from the Portuguese capital Lisbon to Montréal and Toronto.
The airline will deploy Airbus A330-300 aircraft on the Porto-Montréal service with economy and premium economy cabins.
Air Canada has also relaunched its London Heathrow-Ottawa route for the first time in five years. The service, which resumed on Monday (31 March), operates four times per week on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday.
The seasonal service from London to Canada’s capital will operate until 25 October using Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft fitted with economy, premium economy and business cabins.
Air Canada announced last month that it was also launching a new seasonal service between Edinburgh and Montréal from 27 June.
