That's a seriously impressive route map.
Though, I wonder why there's not a single winter flight to the Azores, Madeira, The Canaries, Lisbon, Nice, Ibiza, Agadir, etc?
Sure one of these prospective transatlantic winter routes could sustain a weekly flight?
Certainly Canadian tourists would be interested in going to some winter destinations other than Florida, Mexico, and the Caribbean?
There's also a lot of North Africans in the maritimes now, and a single winter flight to the south of Portugal, Spain, France/Italy, or North Africa might prove popular not just among North Africans in the maritimes, but for the rest of the growing tourism market.
These locations across the pond might not be as hot as Mexico or Cuba, but I think there's a lot of benefit to visiting Europe in the off season. Who the hell wants to travel to London, England during the winter anyways?
