Air Canada adds Montreal-Edinburgh route for this summer

Air Canada is adding a new route and boosting frequencies to popular Europe destinations for the upcoming summer travel season.

New summer services from Montreal to Edinburgh will complement the carrier’s existing summer services from Toronto to the Scottish capital city. The carrier is also adding close to 1,300 weekly seats to Paris and Athens, and is also extending its peak Toronto to Rome schedule until October.

“Air Canada is excited to add the only non-stop flights between Montreal and Edinburgh! Our new flights will link Scotland to Canada’s second largest metropolitan area, bringing additional travel choices to the legendary land of castles, lochs and more through our extensive network at our Montreal hub,” said Mark Galardo, Air Canada’s Executive Vice President, Revenue and Network Planning, & President, Cargo. “We are also adding flights to Paris, Athens and Rome from our Toronto global hub this summer to meet expected demand. At Air Canada, we are proud to support tourism as well as connect people visiting friends and family. We look forward to welcoming customers onboard our flights.”
