MONTREAL — Air Transat is gearing up for codeshare flights to Dubai.

Air Transat’s Dubai flights via codeshare are with partner Turkish Airlines, according to Aeroroutes.

As reported last week Air Transat recently received approval for licenses, on a codeshare basis, for Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Thailand flights. Turkish Airlines counts all three among its 130+ countries served.

For the Dubai flights, Air Transat will codeshare with Turkish Airlines on its Istanbul-Dubai route.

Air Transat’s year-round Toronto-Istanbul flights launched in December 2025. Air Transat is also launching new nonstop year-round service between Montreal and Istanbul on Oct. 29.

The Canadian government’s travel advice for UAE is currently Orange Level (avoid non-essential travel) after a brief reprieve back to Yellow Level earlier this summer.
