ڪئناڊا جي ايئر ٽرانزٽ سڀني پروازن کي معطل ڪري ٿو

Canada’s Transat A.T. Inc. announces today the gradual suspension of Air Transat flights until اپريل 30.

This decision follows the Government of ڪينيڊا جي announcement that the country is closing its borders to foreign nationals, as well as similar decisions by several other countries where ٽرانسٽ هلندو آهي.

Sales for departures until اپريل 30 are suspended immediately from and to most destinations in يورپ ۽ متحده امارتون. Repatriation flights will still be operated during the next two weeks, in order to bring Transat customers back to their home country. So as to allow as many repatriations as possible, sales will, however, remain temporarily open in both directions between مونٽيريل ۽ پئرس ۽ Lisbon ۽ وچ ۾ سليمان وساڻ ۽ لنڊن ۽ Lisbon. A date for a full halt to operations will be announced soon.

Sales are also halted immediately from and to the ڪيريبين ۽ ميڪسيڪو. Again, flights will continue for a few more days in order to repatriate Transat customers to ڪينيڊا. Transat is advising its Canadian customers who were scheduled to depart in the coming days to heed the government’s recommendations and postpone their departure.

For domestic flights, clients are encouraged to check that their flight is maintained on the website.

Transat customers who are currently at destinations are asked to check the company’s website, where necessary information for the organization of their return will be made available. There will be no booking fee and passengers will not have to pay any price difference. It is of the utmost importance to Transat to bring everyone back.

All customers who were unable to travel because their flight is cancelled will receive a credit for future travel, to be used within 24 months of their original travel date.

“This is an unprecedented situation, beyond our control, which is forcing us to briefly suspend all of our flights to contribute to the effort to fight the pandemic, protect our customers and employees and safeguard the company,” said Transat President and Chief Executive Officer Jean-Marc Eustache. “We are doing everything we can so that this has as little impact as possible on our employees and customers, whom we make sure to bring back home.”

In addition to the cost-cutting measures already implemented in recent weeks, we will be moving ahead in the coming days with measures to reduce staffing. These measures will include temporary layoffs and reduction of work time or salary that will unfortunately affect a significant portion of our employees. The company’s senior executives and members of the Board of Directors are also taking pay cuts.
