WestJet launches Montreal-Boston Nonstop Service

WestJet has begun nonstop service between Montreal and Boston. The inaugural flight from Montreal Trudeau International Airport, arrived at Boston Logan International Airport on October 15, marking the last of three new routes launched by WestJet from Montreal this year.

"WestJet has significantly expanded its service to, from and within the province of Quebec in 2017," said Brian Znotins, WestJet Vice-President, Network Planning, Alliances and Corporate Development. "This expansion demonstrates our commitment to bring lower airfares to communities across Canada and create new opportunities for business and leisure travellers to get more value for their travel budgets."

"I would like to thank WestJet for their confidence in us and for their support," said Philippe Rainville, President and CEO of Aéroports de Montréal. "Boston is a popular destination for our passengers, who travel there both for business and leisure. The addition of two flights per day enhances the departure options from Montréal and offers greater flexibility. This is great news for Montréal and confirms Montréal-Trudeau's position as a hub."

"With several different destinations to choose from, Boston Logan has become a terrific gateway for those traveling to Canada," Massport CEO Thomas P. Glynn said. "We are pleased that WestJet is adding twice daily flights to Montreal to our roster, providing even more options for our customers to enjoy Canada."

WestJet began point-to-point service for the first time within the province of Quebec on June 15, 2017, with four daily flights between Montreal and Quebec City. In addition, the airline launched twice-daily service between Montreal and Halifax on March 15, 2017. With the addition of WestJet's new services, the airline now operates an average of 167 weekly departures from Montreal.

All three new routes are operated by WestJet's regional airline, WestJet Encore, and its fleet of Canadian-made Bombardier Q400s. Proud to support this iconic Canadian company, WestJet flies the fourth largest fleet of Q400s in the world. By mid-2018, the regional airline will have a total of 45 aircraft.

WestJet began serving Boston Logan International Airport in 2016 with thrice daily service from Toronto on WestJet Encore.

Upon arrival, younger fans are encouraged to begin their journey by “catching” their own plush lobster at check-in. Pastry Chef Robert Differ will sweeten the arrival with the delivery of a New England sea-life-inspired cookie creation, which will include a personalized “message in a bottle” for each child.

An exclusive “treasure map” of Boston, showcasing concierge recommended “must-visit” kid-friendly destinations throughout the city, will be featured within each unrolled scroll. The quest for treasure will conclude with the discovery of a secret “X that marks the spot,” hidden within the hotel, ready to be found. A selection of child-friendly guestroom amenities including mini bathrobes and slippers will complete this exciting family travel experience.

“This program is designed for families to embark on a personalized self-guided tour of Boston,” said Philipp Knuepfer, General Manager of Mandarin Oriental, Boston. “We wanted to inspire a sense of excitement and exploration as families discover the many historic landmarks and attractions that Boston has to offer and makes this city so unique; float on a swan boat through the Public Garden, dump tea into the Boston Harbor at the Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum or snap a selfie with Mr. & Mrs. Mallard at the Make Way for Ducklings statue, honoring Robert McCloskey's classic Boston-based children's book.”

Throughout each family’s sightseeing and photography expedition, guests are encouraged to capture special moments and share their favorite family photos, posting them to social media, tagging @MO_Boston and using designated hashtags #MOboston and #MOMiniMate.

Waterville Valley Resort in Waterville, New Hampshire, announced this month that it has secured funding to begin work on Phase II of its $7.5 million capital improvements plan that began with the Green Peak Expansion in Fall 2016. Phase II of this capital investment program will bring multi-year infrastructure upgrades and improvements throughout the resort.

The Green Peak Expansion project added a second peak and 45 additional acres of terrain in 2016-17. Phase II of development will include new projects throughout the resort, as well as the completion of the Green Peak Expansion. Work will include additional Green Peak trail clearing and installation of a new snowmaking system, upgrades to existing snowmaking infrastructure on Mount Tecumseh, multiple lift enhancements, base lodge renovations, a new beginner area experience, nordic trail system improvements, and additional summer offerings.

“It is very exciting to be progressing to the next level of development of Waterville Valley Resort and bring to life the vision of our ownership, fellow employees, and guests,” said Tim Smith, President and General Manager. “Financing from The Provident Bank is allowing us to look to the future and continue our evolution, on and off the slopes.”

In anticipation of the major enhancements set to debut throughout the 2017/18 Season, a 10-day Seasonal Pass Flash Sale ending on Friday, June 23rd will offer the lowest pricing of the year on seasonal products for one last time. Waterville Valley Resort is expected to release further details of the multi-year project as progress continues.
