Air Transat announced the launch of several new seasonal routes.
In recent weeks, the airline has inaugurated new non-stop flights to the South from Quebec City, Windsor, Charlottetown and Fredericton, expanding access to popular sun destinations for travellers from Eastern Canada and Southern Ontario.
“The addition of Pointe-à-Pitre from Quebec City brings to fifteen the number of destinations offered by Air Transat this winter from Québec City Jean Lesage International Airport and illustrates our commitment to investing where demand is strong while maintaining our network’s balance,” said Sebastian Ponce, Chief Revenue Officer at Transat.
“By also increasing departures from cities like Windsor, Charlottetown and Fredericton, we bring even more Canadians closer to the vacation destinations they love.”
A new direct link between Quebec City and Guadeloupe
On February 18, Air Transat operated its inaugural flight between Quebec City (YQB) and Pointe‑à‑Pitre (PTP). The departure took place in the new Air Transat zone at Québec City Jean Lesage International Airport. Operated every Wednesday until April 29, 2026, this flight creates a new direct connection to Guadeloupe.
Flights are operated with the Airbus A321LR with ergonomic seating and an inflight entertainment system, both in Economy Class and Club Class.
“We are delighted to celebrate the launch of this non-stop flight between Québec City and Pointe-à-Pitre,” mentioned Stéphane Poirier, President and CEO of YQB.
“This new service to the Guadeloupe Islands, which brings Air Transat’s total to nearly fifteen sun destinations offered from YQB this winter, reflects our commitment to providing diverse and attractive options for travellers from the Québec City region. We thank Air Transat for their ongoing trust and are confident that this new offering will meet our customers’ expectations for their winter getaways.”
