MONTREAL- As Delta Air Lines (DL) commemorates its 90th anniversary of service in Montréal, it’s not just a time to honour decades of aviation history but also to celebrate the vibrant metropolis of Quebec – a city renowned for its culture, history, and sense of exploration.
Montréal, the world’s second-largest French-speaking city, offers an array of experiences.
Delta 90 years of Montreal
Wander through Old Montreal to admire its historic architecture, browse boutique shops, and peruse art galleries. Must-visit landmarks include Notre-Dame Basilica, St. Joseph’s Oratory, and Jean-Talon Market. In the summer, partake in outdoor festivals or take a leisurely stroll along the scenic Canal Lachine.
During winter, embrace the season by ice skating at Place Ville Marie or engaging in various winter sports. Delight in the culinary delights of Montréal, where gastronomy reigns supreme, offering everything from fine dining to delectable street-side food trucks.
Delta Airlines continues solidifying its position as a premier global airline, offering more than 13 direct flights to Montréal from major U.S. hubs such as Atlanta, Detroit, Minneapolis-St. Paul, New York-LaGuardia, and New York-JFK.
Moreover, passengers from South America can benefit from seamless one-stop connections to Montréal via JFK and ATL, enhancing the convenience and accessibility of travel.
Executive Remarks
“Delta has been serving Canada since the mid-1930s, facilitating essential connections between the United States and Canada through key gateways, thereby nurturing economic and cultural bonds between our nations,” stated Joe Esposito, Delta’s Senior Vice President of Network Planning.
“As we continue to expand and innovate, we remain dedicated to fortifying this special partnership and creating new opportunities for future generations.”
Delta organized a celebration at Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (YUL) to commemorate this milestone, featuring events for employees and local dignitaries. Upon arrival and departure, passengers were pleasantly surprised with local treats and commemorative gifts.
Delta has consistently prioritized customer feedback, placing their travel experience at the forefront of its operations by efficiently connecting them to their desired destinations.
Remarkable Growth
In 2019, Delta predominantly operated regional jets for flights to Montréal. However, there has since been a notable shift towards utilizing mainline aircraft, resulting in a remarkable 30% increase in available seats per departure compared to 2019.
By employing Airbus 319 aircraft on crucial routes such as Montréal-Atlanta and Montréal-Minneapolis-St. Paul (with MSP serving as a seasonal destination), Delta continues to fulfill its mission of connecting customers to global destinations.
The operation at Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (YUL) extends beyond mere convenience; it serves as a gateway to the world, integrating Montréal into the diverse fabric of global culture and economy.
Through Delta, travelers can access nearly 300 destinations worldwide, bridging the city with international business centers, cultural hubs, and hidden treasures.
