TORONTO — Azores Airlines, the only airline offering year-round, nonstop service to the Azores, will offer up to 10 weekly flights to the Azores for summer 2023.
In addition to year-round Toronto – Ponta Delgada service, Azores Airlines will operate new nonstop service from Toronto to Terceira.
Flights will operate on Tuesdays March 29 – May 31, and October 3 – 24, and twice weekly Thursdays and Sundays between June 1 and September 28.
From Montreal, travellers will have the choice of nonstop service to Terceira every Tuesday from June 13 to Sept. 19, or weekly Saturday service to Ponta Delgada from June 17 to Sept. 23.
New this year is the option for a daytime flight experience. Sunday flights from Toronto to Terceira and Montreal flights to Terceira and Ponta Delgada will operate during the day.
Terceira and Sao Miguel, both easily accessible (less than 5.5 hours away) and affordable, are ideal gateways to other Azorean islands, says the carrier. The destination offers year-round activities such as hiking, diving, snorkeling, whale watching, swimming with dolphins, canyoning, golfing, and kayaking/paddle boarding. Other highlights include culture and history, wine, and gastronomy in Terceira’ Angra do Heroismo, UNESCO World Heritage city, or relaxing in natural thermal pools.
Peak summer flights to Terceira will be operated by A330 aircraft, while Ponta Delgada flights will be operated by the fuel-efficient A321 Neo and NeoLR aircraft. Two classes of service are available: economy and business, including lie-flat beds in business class on A330 Terceira flights. A variety of fare options are available including free checked baggage or sports equipment and free stopover for up to seven days in the Azores.
