Air France’s Ottawa to Paris flight will now be offered year round

Just a few short weeks ago Air France’s new Ottawa to Paris flight took off for the first time and it must be proving quite successful! When the new route was announced it was slated to be summer seasonal service but now the airline has extended it to year round service.

On top of this they will be up-gauging the aircraft from an Airbus A330 to a Boeing 787-9 at the end of October. This route is part of this month’s Flying Blue Promo Rewards which sees 25% off business class reward flights between Ottawa and Europe for travel until the end of the year.

Air France will also be increasing frequencies on their Montreal and Vancouver routes for the winter to 21 and 5 per week respectively (Up from 17 and 3)

Air Canada’s new lounge within a lounge at Newark Liberty International Airport

Air Canada has added one more lounge to their Maple Leaf lounge network at Newark Liberty International Airport. This lounge is unique in that it is co-located within the new United Club location in Newark’s Terminal A. It offers a dedicated Air Canada customer service desk and an access policy consistent with Air Canada’s Maple Leaf Lounges. This is the third lounge to be added to Air Canada’s network in the past two months after opening locations at Toronto’s Billy Bishop Airport and San Francisco International Airport.
