Air Transat passengers flying from Montreal to Fort-de-France in Martinique will be able to make the trip all year long now.
“We continue to expand our range of South destinations offered year-round,” says 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.”
Presently, the flight between Montreal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International (YUL) and Martinique Aimé Césaire International Airport (FDF) is scheduled up to four times a week in the winter. Starting June 7, 2025 until Oct. 25, a Saturday flight will operate, allowing convenient access to the turquoise waters of Les Anses-d'Arlet, the hiking trails of Mount Pelée and the bustling markets of Fort-de-France in the summer months.
"Air Transat's year-round service to Fort-de-France strengthens Martinique's ties with Quebec, solidifying Canada as our top international tourism market,” says The Honourable Bénédicte di Géronimo, President of the Martinique Tourism Authority. “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."
