YUL will get all 4 main Lufthansa brand by next summer and will be connected to all main LH&co hubs
LH to MUC and FRA (seasonal)
LX to ZRH
OS to VIE
and SN to BRU
in addition to AC flights from the TATL JV to FRA, BRU and GVA
No need for WK flight as there is already LX flying the route

3 hours of driving is mentioned, but aren't there flights between YUL and YQB, that business people might take ? Yes, up to 9 flights a day with a duration of about 50 minutes. But with security time and risk of the connecting flight being delayed, it takes about the same time as driving. With OSS ...
Jump to postBest case scenario for YQB would be daily flight to Paris year round, forget about provincial cities, it would need to be a plane with not too many business class seats, but also one of the smaller plane the carrier has, since the market would not sustain 450 seats daily like those high density conf...
Jump to postOne piece of the puzzle missing is business class demand out of yqb to paris, this might be one of the reason why AF is not launching flights, too many premium seats, or less business seats but higher pax number which might not be worth using the plane to YQB instead of another city
Jump to postFlight arrives in YUL with perfect connection times to CDG, LHR, NCE, LYS, GVA, BCN, LIS, DUB, VCE, FCO, BOD, TLS, MRS, CMN, ALG, FRA (both AC & LH), BRU (AC & SN), MUC (LH) and VIE (OS) as well as a bunch of domestic destinations as well as US destinations. You, too, play jplatt's game of ...
Jump to postThere were rumors last year that SN wanted to cancel both YYZ and BOM. BOM is already gone, and so will YYZ come January. Seems to me this is more than just AC’s wish. It’s more the opposite in fact. SN wanting to leave, and AC forced to take over the route, to keep its global hub at YYZ intact. Du...

There are rumours that WestJet and Air France are both interested to submit a bid for Air Transat, no details if it's separate bids or together as there is a maximum ownership of 49% by foreign companies for airlines in Canada, or if such plans are still of interest following AC increased offer.

Jump to postThe one intriguing option could be YMX...could that be developed into an LCC airport alternative to YUL? In the short term no, and even long term would require lots of investments. No terminal or passengers facilities at YMX (2 small FBO, otherwise it's all business/cargo ops) Access to mirabel is ...
Jump to postPart of the problem comes from the fact that canadian airport are all managed as non-profit organizations as they are forced to do so by law, their financing sources is either debt or fees/rent charged. If the govt were to cap the AIF, they would have to allow the airport managers to become for prof...
Jump to postAs it's been mentionned in previous posts, there is a few european destinations that TS flies to that AC doesn't go, like BSL for instance, or even LGW.

Jump to postI'm ready to bet that that the only YUL-BOS flight captures more outbound BOS connections rather than YUL pax transiting in BOS. Also, currently there are flights to PEK, PVG, and NRT from both airports with KE shortly beginning in BOS recently. Let's agree that BOS does not have more service to As...
Jump to postThe real end of the Suite Class has always been the Gulfsteam and Global Express series. Anyone who could afford a full fare on EK or EY would just assume charter a business jet and avoid the constraints of a schedule and the stop in the Middle East.

Jump to postTo add to Dominion301 excellent post, driving from Ottawa's center to YUL is about 2h drive, in comparison, flight time is 45-50min + mct of 40 min at YUL for dom/intl flights, that means it's only 30 min faster flying if everything goes according to plan (probably even more since you could time you...

Jump to postSJC-YYZ would be a resumption of that route. AC flew it around 2000. Yup. It was killed in the post-9/11 downturn. I believe they also flew SJC-Ottawa (YOW?) briefly.
