Air Canada brings back BWI to Montreal flight ($148 each way)

By Jeff Clabaugh

Air Canada resumed its nonstop flights from BWI Marshall Airport to Montreal on June 1, two weeks after resuming its nonstop flights from BWI to Toronto.

Both routes were suspended in March 2020, due to the coronavirus pandemic’s effect on travel demand.

Air Canada operates two daily flights from BWI to Toronto currently, that will expand to three times per day starting July 1. Its Montreal flight is once daily.

Summer fares from BWI Marshall to Montreal are listed starting at $148 one-way on Air Canada’s website.

Air Canada and United Airlines operate flights from Dulles to Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, Calgary and Ottawa. Air Canada and American Airlines have flights from Reagan National to Toronto and Montreal. Delta flies from Reagan National to Montreal as well. All three fly from DCA to Vancouver and Calgary.

Air Canada and United fly from DCA to Ottawa.

At BWI, three new airlines have started service this year, including PLAY and Icelandair to Reykjavik, and Avelo Airlines to New Haven, Connecticut, Wilmington, North Carolina, and Orlando.

Other airlines that have resumed pandemic-suspended routes at BWI this year have included British Airways. Condor resumes BWI flights to Frankfurt, Germany this weekend.

Massachusetts court hears arguments in lawsuit alleging Meta designed apps to be addictive to kids

By The Associated Press
BOSTON (AP) — Massachusetts' highest court heard oral arguments Friday in the state's lawsuit arguing that Meta designed features on Facebook and Instagram to make them addictive to young users. The lawsuit, filed in 2023 by Attorney General Andrea Campbell, alleges that Meta did this to make a profit and that its actions affected hundreds of thousands of teenagers in Massachusetts who use the social media platforms. “We are making claims based only on the tools that Meta has developed because its own research shows they encourage addiction to the platform in a variety of ways,” said State Solicitor David Kravitz, adding that the state's claim has nothing to do the company's algorithms or failure to moderate content. Meta said Friday that it strongly disagrees with the allegations and is “confident the evidence will show our longstanding commitment to supporting young people.” Its attorney, Mark Mosier, argued in court that the lawsuit “would impose liabilities for performing traditional publishing functions” and that its actions are protected by the First Amendment.
