Transformation Story Amid Strong Demand for European Travel

Air Transat has undergone a remarkable reinvention following an unsuccessful acquisition bid by Air Canada in 2019. Under COO Marc-Philippe Lumpé, the carrier has reoriented its business model to focus on a classical network carrier. With a broadening of customer and destination base, Air Transat now serves numerous destinations in Europe, Latin America, and the Caribbean. The airline’s premium economy product is considered one of the best in the industry at a competitive price. AeroTime was given the opportunity to speak with Lumpé during the World Aviation Festival.
