Flights connecting the capital of Quebec and US Airways’ international gateway begin June 2
US Airways (NYSE: LCC) announced new, daily year-round service from its international gateway at Philadelphia International Airport to Quebec City, Quebec, one of the oldest and most picturesque cities in Canada.
Beginning June 2, customers can travel to the Quebec capital three times per day with the new service. Customers traveling from Quebec City will now have access to 108 domestic and international destinations through Philadelphia,
where US Airways has expanded its service to 451 daily departures.
“US Airways customers and members of the Philadelphia community will continue to benefit from our continued
development of our northeast hub with the new Quebec City service,” said US Airways’ Vice President, Philadelphia
Hub, Bob Ciminelli. “Each day, US Airways connects approximately 18,000 customers to small, medium and large
communities – including many in California, Florida, Europe and the Caribbean – through Philadelphia International
Airport.”
