Air Canada announced Wednesday it will start offering enhanced service to North Carolina next spring.

The airline revealed it will launch its new, non-stop daily flight between Raleigh and Montreal starting on June 3, 2019, which will be operated using a 50-seat Canadair regional aircraft.

“Air Canada is pleased to expand its services from North Carolina with a new route to Montreal and larger aircraft operating to Toronto,” Air Canada vice president Mark Galardo said in a statement. “The new Raleigh-Montreal service will be the only non-stop flight between these cities, while customers traveling between Toronto and Raleigh and Charlotte will now have the option of Business Class, offering an upgraded flying experience.”

“While always a popular leisure destination, North Carolina is also experiencing strong economic growth and Air Canada is making it more convenient and comfortable for customers to travel between Canada and the state,” Galardo continued.

Air Canada will also utilize a larger aircraft when serving flights between Toronto and two destinations in North Carolina. The three-times daily flights to Raleigh and twice-daily service to Charlotte will debut May 1, 2019.

The 76-seat Embraer E175 used on the routes will also offer travelers Business Class service.

“We're very excited that Air Canada is continuing to invest in Raleigh–Durham International Airport and our region with service to Montreal, our seventh nonstop international destination,” Raleigh-Durham Airport Authority CEO Michael Landguth said in a statement. “This is one of our top unserved international markets, providing travelers with exciting new opportunities and access to Air Canada's global network.”
