Excellente nouvelle!!

This is great news.  Slowly but surely we're building up a very substantial feeder network for our international operations.  This will help solidify the hub.

Excellent!

Is it not the opposite? I believe that we are feeding American Airline's hub at DFW instead...

Goes both way.

I mean if it was Air Canada, I would understand how the flights would feed our international network. However, American Airlines does not have any international destinations out of YUL and there is a limited amount of airlines under Oneworld at our airport. Therefore, how is our hub being fed in that case?

Atta boy Mark. I was getting worried that you were going to miss a chance for negative input...but you came through. Well done!!

It actually gives more options for Montreal travellers.

My guess is probably others will follow as well, Delta will probably add an extra flight as well. As for United, they don't really need to, since Air Canada is opening up routes pretty much everywhere these days. That's why United is the only US-3 that does not fly a mainline aircraft at YUL.

Air Canada is mainline, Jazz/Sky Regional are feeder/contract carriers

Same for a lot of airlines, they "subcontract" flying to other companies mainly for salaries/union purposes.
