Low-cost European carrier Norwegian is launching a new route to the French Caribbean this fall.

Beginning in October, Norwegian will operate three weekly nonstop flights between Montreal and Guadeloupe.

The flights, which will operate on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays, will run through March 2019, according to Guadeloupe tourism officials.

The flights will complement six weekly nonstop flights from New York to Guadeloupe, and three weekly flights from Fort Lauderdale to Guadeloupe, all between October 2018 and March 2019.

This will be the fourth season Norwegian has operated flights to the French Caribbean archipelago.
