Daily non-stop flights from Lambert International Airport in St. Louis to Montreal, Quebec, Canada officially began on May 2.
As part of the celebrations of the new non-stop flight, St. Louis officials, which included St. Louis Mayor Tishaura Jones and St. Louis County Executive Sam Page were part of a group that went on the inaugural Air Canada flight to the city of Montreal, where they participated in a five-day trade mission.
"What I always say is when we take these trade missions, I put our participants to work." said Tim Nowak, Executive Director of World Trade Center St. Louis to KMOX's Michael Calhoun on Total Information A.M. Wednesday. "With any of these trade missions, you hit the ground running and you don't stop until you get home. It was a whirlwind five days."
