Pascan Aviation has announced it is adding direct flights between Saint John, N.B., and Québec City.

The Saint John Airport says the route will be convenient for people travelling for business or pleasure.

“Pascan has shown a genuine willingness to listen to our market,” said Lori Carle, manager of marketing, public and corporate relations with the airport, in a news release.

“By adjusting flight times and adding new destinations like Québec City, they’re proving they want to make regional air service work for Saint John—and for our passengers.”

The airport adds the route will eliminate lengthy drives or connections for New Brunswickers looking to explore more of Eastern Canada.

Earlier this month, Pascan announced it would be ending its route between Halifax and Sydney, N.S., effective July 20.
