French bee aims to open the market to Canada with the launch of the Paris/Montreal line

From April 2025, the company will try to attract a new layer of customers with ultra-competitive prices

French bee, the first French airline specializing in long-haul flights at competitive prices, strengthens its presence in North America with the opening of sales of its new direct route between Paris – Orly and Montreal.

From 30 April 2025, the company will offer four weekly flights to Montreal, operated by one of its latest generation Airbus A350. This environmentally responsible device guarantees a seat’s CO2 footprint reduced by 25% while offering an optimal flight experience. French Bee’s A350-900s assigned to the new route offer 376 economy class seats and 35 premium class seats.

An ambitious growth strategy

After the success of the lines to the United States (San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, Miami), the Indian Ocean (Reunion) and the Pacific Ocean (Tahiti), the company is expanding its network in North America with this first Canadian destination.

This expansion responds to the growing demand for long-haul travel at competitive prices, while maintaining a high level of service and an environmentally responsible approach.
