"Rising Demand for Total Eclipse Flights to Clear-Sky City"

Interest in flights to Montreal has surged as eclipse chasers seek clear skies for Monday's total solar eclipse, with climatic records indicating the highest chances of clear skies in the southwest US. Hotel rates in American cities along the eclipse's path have doubled or trebled, but the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predicts cloud cover along almost the entire track. Montreal is expected to have a clear view of totality, leading to a surge in flight demand and stable hotel rates, while some lucky passengers on scheduled flights from the UK to the US and Canada may catch a glimpse of the eclipse during their journey.

The A380, typically used for long-haul international flights, transported 485 passengers originally booked on separate flights, as the storm forecast limited flights into Sydney airport. The airline's decision was influenced by the "incredibly high demand" for flights into the city because of Swift's tour, with over 600,000 people attending her shows in Sydney and Melbourne.
