mont royal Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 I haven't seen any announcement, but AA seems to be ramping up its schedule to Montreal. In addition to its daily flight recently begun from Miami, they now seem to have added a daily to Dallas, plus a second daily flight from both Charlotte and Philadelphia. Can anyone confirm whether this is new scheduling or just a blip? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had mainline service to MIA and DFW prior to the pandemic (multiple dailies to MIA) along with multiple daily Charlotte and Philadelphia flights (plus some ORD and JFK).

SameGuy Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 I can ask their ops tomorrow (right across the hall). I think both AA and UA will be at 12 flights a day ex-YUL in June, DL 11. AA and DL will have three mainlines, UA will likely remain an RJ station for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mont royal Posted April 7, 2022 Author Share Posted April 7, 2022 AA has now added a third daily fight from Phillie. By my count and including Chicago and LaGuardia, that makes 13 daily flights from YUL. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SameGuy Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Seems like old times… well, if a CR2 is the same as a 737… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timothy Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 Noting how AA and DL have historically served YUL with mainline or a mainline/regional mix, but that UA has (never?) offered mainline. At different times, Northwest, US Air, Continental and Eastern also had mainline service at YUL, but that ceased when they were individually absorbed into the current big three. So does anyone know if 'UA no mainline at YUL' is due to them being a longstanding AC partner at our longstanding AC hub, or are there other UA-specific factors at play? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribb Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 It’s odd AA & DL does while UA doesn’t especially considering YUL is a major Star Alliance hub.. is anything I would have expected mainline from them and regional from the other two. Now that they e developed a joint venture with AC I’m hoping they’ll code share YUL-LAX, YUL-SFO and maybe some other trans continental route with mainline aircraft. So weird the other two do and they only fly short hops. Everything seems backwards from what it should logically be. Maybe UA mainline is the global carrier that we speculated on a few weeks ago that is rumored to come to Montreal… 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SameGuy Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 AC doesn’t have US hubs. Hub and spoke still rules in North America. Don’t expect any long-distance flying from the US carriers if they can code share, basically getting money for not doing anything. It’s the same reason why the US carriers are cutting their 5th Freedom flights in Asia, and downsizing or eliminating hubs. I mean, Narita was one of the busiest widebody hubs operated by a US carrier anywhere as recently as 15 years ago, when Northwest Airlines served 19 different destinations: Bangkok, Beijing, Busan, Detroit, Guam, Guangzhou, Hong Kong, Honolulu, Los Angeles, Manila, Minneapolis, Portland, Saipan, San Francisco, Seattle Tacoma, Seoul, Shanghai, Singapore, and Taipei. It was a sight to behold. Now, Delta serves seven US cities out of Haneda, with only Manila served on Delta metal, out of ICN. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
