‘Sweet Escape Offer’ provides alternative city break from just £385 per person

Montréal, 27 March 2007 – With cuisine to outshine the finest in France and a nightlife that dances Ibiza and Barcelona off the podium, Montréal is the city break must for 2007.

A unique treasure, Montréal combines the scale of a North American metropolis with the culture and charm of Europe’s most ornate cities. And with British Airways as official airline carrier to the city, Brits - both young and old - can now enjoy three fun-filled days of cuisine, culture and the cosmopolitan from £385 per person, including accommodation in a four or five star hotel.

So, rather than re-treading familiar European destinations, Britons can sample a short transatlantic trip in the vein of New York. Be it first-rate shopping, superb dining and nightlife, exploring museums or simply wandering the sights, you’ll wonder why you hadn't visited sooner. With world-class music, film and comedy festivals throughout the year, Montréal is a city that rarely sleeps but is always laid-back.

For a long time, many Brits would only consider visiting Montréal as part of a longer tour of Canada. However, with the incredible new Sweet Escape Offer, it is set to become a city break destination for Brits desiring a few days away. A cultural wonder, Montréal is a series of complementary contradictions that only a visit will help decipher – be it foodies, party animals, culture vultures or just people in search of a relaxing break, we look forward to welcoming more and more Brits with an appetite for life.
