“Air Canada is the preferred choice for business travel”

In addition, our schedules allow North American travellers to comfortably reach Italy to reconnect with loved ones and discover the cultural, gastronomic and historical heritage of this beautiful country.”

“The Italian-Canadian community will greatly benefit from the direct flights”
“The new route strengthens the historical ties and economic relations between the two countries and consolidates the intercontinental segment of Naples’ airport, which is fundamental for the development of tourist flows and commercial exchange,- adds Roberto Barbieri, CEO of Gesac. -Campania is one of the most sought-after destinations for Canadian tourists and Montréal, in addition to being the ideal destination for exploring French-speaking Canada, is a multicultural city and home to a large Italian-Canadian community that will greatly benefit from the direct flights”
The new route will have an economic impact on Naples
“The introduction of the new intercontinental flights to Naples is important news from many points of view,- said the mayor of Naples, Gaetano Manfredi. - The direct connection between Montréal and Naples is a great development opportunity for transport to and from Capodichino Airport, the central hub for tourist and commercial flows, but it is also an important investment for the economic impact that this route will have on our city. At a time of great change for the city and of rebirth in its role as a Euro-Mediterranean capital, we can only welcome this additional point of contact with Canada and with the Canadian market, with which we will build increasingly close relations in terms of tourism, culture and trade.”
