Air Transat Unveils First 30th Anniversary Aircraft

Air Transat, Canada’s holiday travel airline, on Wednesday unveiled the first of its 30th anniversary aircraft displaying the recently introduced anniversary logo that highlights the company’s 30-year history and the Transat group’s star emblem.

The special livery will be displayed on three of the carrier’s Airbus A330-300 aircraft, which fly Montréal–Paris and Toronto–London routes, and also serve Punta Cana and Cancun.

To highlight how far it has come and to celebrate the future, the company has a variety of surprises and special activities planned throughout the year for vacationers, its partners (including travel agencies), and its 5,000 employees in North America and Europe. Last week, the company launched its 30th anniversary video, which will begin screening on board all Air Transat aircraft in the next few days.

Every year, Air Transat carries some three million passengers to approximately 60 destinations in 26 countries. Based in Montreal, the company employs more than 2,500 people and operates a fleet of Boeing narrow-body and Airbus wide-body jets. In 2016, Air Transat was named Best North American Leisure Airline for the fifth consecutive year by Skytrax.

Gold Star Aviation is Air Transat’s official General Sales Agent (GSA) in Greece.
