Planning a Belize vacation just got even easier—especially for travelers from Canada and Europe. Air Canada, in collaboration with the Belize Tourism Board, has officially announced a new nonstop route connecting Montréal-Trudeau International Airport (YUL) to Belize City’s Philip Goldson International Airport (BZE). Starting December 8, 2025, this new flight is not only a game-changer for Canadian tourists, but it also gives European travelers their first opportunity for same-day connectivity to Belize.
For us at Barefoot Services, we couldn’t be more excited. As a locally owned and award-nominated travel company in Belize, we’re here to help you take full advantage of this new route—whether you’re arriving from Montreal, London, or Madrid. We’ll be waiting with airport transfers, custom itineraries, guided inland and island tours, and accommodations that showcase Belize’s best.
A Game-Changing Flight for Belize Travel
The direct service will run weekly:
- Montreal to Belize (Flight AC 1876): Departs Mondays at 5:45 PM, arrives at 10:05 PM.
- Belize to Montreal (Flight AC 1877): Departs Tuesdays at 11:00 AM, arrives at 4:40 PM.
The flight will be operated by Air Canada Rouge aboard a 136-seat Airbus A319, featuring 12 Premium Rouge and 124 Economy seats.
But here’s the real headline—this opens up same-day access to Belize from 23 major European cities, including London, Paris, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Madrid, Rome, and more. Now, travelers from across Europe can wake up at home and fall asleep under the Belizean stars that very night.
This announcement builds on Air Canada’s current service from Toronto and shows the growing demand for Belize as a premier vacation spot. Anthony Mahler, Belize’s Minister of Tourism, noted, “With this new same-day connection, Belize stands ready to welcome new and returning visitors to immerse themselves in Belize’s unique natural and cultural attractions.”
Why This Matters for Your Belize Adventure
If you’ve ever dreamed of a vacation filled with snorkeling off pristine cayes, cave tubing through ancient Maya underworlds, or relaxing in a jungle eco-lodge, this is your sign. Travel barriers are coming down, and Belize is more accessible than ever before.
