Transat Adds Year-Round Service from Montreal to Martinique
by Marsha Mowers
Canadians wanting to visit Martinique can now do so more easily as Air Transat has announced new year-round service from Montreal to the island.
Currently, Transat flies YUL- FDF four times a week during the winter. The annualization adds a summer flight every Saturday, running from June 7 to October 25.
“We continue to expand our range of South destinations offered year-round,” 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.”
The Honourable Bénédicte di Géronimo, President of the Martinique Tourism Authority added: “Air Transat’s year-round service to Fort-de-France strengthens Martinique’s ties with Quebec, solidifying Canada as our 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.”
