Last Saturday, Air Transat inaugurated its flights from Toronto Pearson International Airport to Medellin, Colombia, with a stopover in Cartagena, marking a milestone in the consolidation of the Canadian airline’s South American network.
This new exclusive connection will operate twice per week year-round on Airbus A321LR aircraft, offering direct access to two of Colombia’s most captivating cities: the coastal jewel of Cartagena and the mountainous metropolis of Medellin.

Furthermore, starting in the summer of 2026, the airline will implement a similar route from Montreal, extending its year-round Montreal-Cartagena flight and adding a direct connection to Medellin.
