John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport is ramping up for another winter season. Whether it be for leisure or business, this year’s schedule will further cater to every type of passenger with service to both popular sun destinations and cities across Canada.

In May 2016, Hamilton International welcomed twice daily non-stop Air Canada flights to Montreal, a key service which allows business travelers to access one of the top demand markets, and connect to a number of European and Eastern Canadian destinations, directly from Hamilton. This winter, WestJet will also continue flights to year round destination Calgary and return with seasonal service to Cancun and Orlando.

Additional domestic destinations on both the east and west coast will also be provided through new Airport partner NewLeaf Travel Company in partnership with Flair Air. From November to April, NewLeaf will offer direct service to Halifax, Edmonton, Winnipeg and Moncton, as well as one-stop service to Abbotsford.

Hamilton International is excited to welcome back its partners Air Transat, Sunwing and Celebrity Cruises for the 2016/17 winter season, which offer direct service to key vacation destinations throughout the United States, Mexico and Caribbean including: Cancun, Cayo Coco, Montego Bay, Orlando, Punta Cana, Puerto Plata, Varadero and Caribbean Cruise.

Shorter lines, an easy-to-navigate terminal and parking located just steps from the main terminal doors are just a few of the benefits to using Hamilton International, and to helping passengers board their flight and ultimately reach their destination more quickly.
