Emirates is set to launch a new daily service from Dubai to Montréal, starting July 5, the Dubai-based carrier’s second gateway in Canada that will complement its passenger services to Toronto.

The daily flights between Dubai and Montréal will operate as EK243/244 with a Boeing 777-300ER aircraft in a three-class configuration, offering a premium travel experience across its cabins. Passengers can enjoy Emirates’ award-winning travel experience aboard its wide-body aircraft with 8 First Class suites, 42 lie-flat seats in Business Class and 304 seats in Economy Class.

The airline said tickets to Montréal go on sale today for flights starting July 5 and can be booked on its website, the Emirates App or through travel agents.

“As a major metropolitan centre and as Canada’s second-largest city, we are pleased to add Montréal to our growing global network of over 130 destinations and strengthen our coverage in the Americas to reach 18 points served by our services from Dubai,” said Adnan Kazim, Emirates’ chief commercial officer.

The daily flights to Montréal are expected to cater to the huge demand for direct flights between Dubai and Canada, particularly to its two largest metropolitan hubs while providing more choices for travellers when flying to the North American country.

Meanwhile, the launch of the new destination comes as the UAE and Canada aim to deepen economic cooperation between the two nations and stimulate benefits to the aviation and tourism sectors, in addition to enhancing trade flows and commercial links.

Emirates and Air Canada’s customers have access to an expansive network of destinations, thanks to the codeshare partnership between the two airlines.

In addition to more than 130 destinations that the airline flies to, Emirates customers have access to 19 Canadian destinations beyond Toronto through the partnership while Air Canada customers can fly on Emirates to Dubai and access 17 cities in Africa, the Indian Subcontinent, the Middle East and the Far East.

Emirates expands global network“With our expanded reach into the country, we look forward to facilitating new trade lanes, which will bring a host of benefits to Canadian businesses and exporters in addition to promoting tourism into more cities and generating more jobs across all sectors, including those directly serving the aviation industry,” added Kazim.

Through an enhanced interline arrangement between both airlines, Emirates passengers are now able to choose from 68 points from Montréal, including the US, Mexico, South America and the Caribbean while enjoying conveniences such as the simplicity of flight itineraries on a single ticket and smooth connections.

Emirates Skywards members can earn miles on all eligible Air Canada flights and can redeem miles for reward tickets across Air Canada’s network.

The carrier has been flying to Toronto since 2007 and its flagship A380 service on the Dubai-Toronto route since 2009. From 20 April, Emirates will be serving Toronto with a daily A380 service.

With the addition of Montréal, the airline will provide a choice of two points for travellers planning trips to and from Canada. This will also grow Emirates’ network across the Americas to two points in Canada, 12 in the US and four destinations across Mexico, Brazil and Argentina.
