What changes compared with the summer
This summer, Air France offered up to 60 weekly flights from Canada, as we reported in our article on Air France and KLM maintaining their flights to Europe. Winter brings a smaller schedule, which is normal on transatlantic routes.
- Montreal: from 28 weekly flights in summer to 14 in winter, then 21 over the holidays
- Toronto: from 14 weekly flights in summer to 10 in winter
- Ottawa and Vancouver: from 7 weekly flights in summer to 5 in winter, then 7 over the holidays
- Quebec City: 4 weekly flights in summer, no direct flight in the winter schedule
For travellers in the Quebec City area, the simplest option this winter is a connection in Montreal. Check that both flights are on the same booking, so the connection is protected.
Across North America, Air France is adding 6% more seats than in winter 2025. The airline will serve 23 destinations on the continent this winter.
More connecting destinations through Paris
From Canada, most travellers use Paris-CDG as a connecting point. Several routes from CDG are getting more flights this winter:
- Spain and Portugal: 2 daily flights to Porto and 1 weekly flight to Tenerife South
- France: 11 daily flights to Toulouse, 10 to Nice and 9 to Marseille
- Asia: 5 weekly flights to Phuket, up from 3 last winter, on top of 2 daily flights to Bangkok
- Maldives: 2 weekly flights until early March
