A Paris charter would all depend on the world economy. They tried Moncton before and failed and then moved to Halifax and even that wasn't successful. Even Quebec City was unsuccessful.

If Moncton were to obtain any of those routes I don't think its going to matter whether or not Saint John or Fredericton are considered International.
St. John's would definitely work. Moncton used to have a CanJet flight to St. John's before the airline tanked. It was popular. I would like to see WestJet or Porter do it.

Quebec City could work. Again, the Acadian population would support it.

There are enough north shorers working out in Alberta that a direct run to Calgary or Edmonton might be feasable.

Boston would work better for Moncton than it would for SJ or Freddy. It's just far enough away that driving there is inconvenient.

I agree that Orlando(year round), Chicago and Paris would be long shots.
