Air Transat plans twice-weekly Birmingham-Toronto route

Air Transat plans to restore nonstop service between Toronto Pearson and Birmingham in summer 2027, marking the route’s return after it was last operated in 2017. The seasonal service is expected to run twice weekly from late June through October, using Airbus A321LR aircraft. Travelers will be able to connect in Toronto to other Canadian destinations through Air Transat’s partnership with Porter Airlines, including Vancouver, Montreal, Calgary and Edmonton. Birmingham Airport says the route responds to established travel demand between the Midlands and Canada and will give regional travelers a direct option instead of requiring a connecting flight or travel to another airport.
