Not 7 daily, but between 5 and 7 flights a day (42 departures and 42 arrivals weekly) depending on the day of the week:

- JFK by DL is daily
- EWR by UA is daily
- EWR by La Compagnie is 4 to 5 weekly
- PHL by AA is daily
- ATL by DL is daily
- YUL by AC is 5 weekly
- YUL by TS is 4 weekly

And indeed, I am not counting the ad hoc AF flights here since it is still a small number. So whilst some days will "only" get 4 or 5 (and the same in shoulder season ie 4-5 daily in April, May, and 5-6 in October) that's 42 nonstop weekly departures and as many arrivals in June-Sept inclusive, and obviously a substantive increase in nonstop flight connections with North America even compared with 2023 which was a record already.
