I don't know why they don't try to land a flight to London or Paris via Zoom - surely Southern NB could support a twice-a-week trans-Atlantic flight.

It would also be ideal if SJ could have a flight to a big American hub - like Atlanta or Chicago, because it would bring many destinations much closer and would (I'm fairly certain) be quite profitable for the airline offering it.
The major problem in that case is that Moncton has a International airport. It will be more complex for them to attract more international destinations. To set up more flights within Canada to Saint John, they can try to attract "West Jet" in town, they are both in Moncton and Halifax as well. As you said, that great to hear.
