Non-stop flights added from London to Montreal

Those interested in convenient travel to Montreal will be able to do so next summer as the London International Airport will offer daily flights.

Airport officials announced non-stop daily service to the second-largest city in Canada will be added to its schedule through Air Canada starting in June 2023.

"This direct Montreal flight has been one of the most requested destinations in our region, so it is great news that Air Canada will offer this service in 2023," said LIA President and CEO Scott McFadzean.

McFadzean said having direct service to Montreal will open more possibilities for well-timed connections between several European destinations such as Brussels, Rome, Geneva, Barcelona, and Africa, including Casablanca.

"We continue to discuss more service and additional destinations with our airline partners, and we are excited to see more service returning to London International Airport," said McFadzean.

The flight schedule with Air Canada from London will be as follows:

London (YXU) to Montreal (YUL), once per day starting mid-June 2023.

London (YXU) to Toronto (YYZ), currently three times daily, increased to four times daily by May 2023.

More information about flight schedules, route maps and bookings are available on the London International Airport's website.
