Passengers on seven international flights that touched down in Montreal could have been exposed to COVID-19, according to the Government of Canada.

Six domestic flights that departed from Montreal and three that landed at YUL could also have led to a virus exposure.

On the government’s website, officials have updated a list that features which flights with confirmed coronavirus cases have arrived or departed from Montreal.

Most recently a flight departing from Moncton (AC8903) was added to the list as well as an international flight from Doha (QR763).
