During the upcoming summer season, which spans from March 30 to October 25 according to IATA slot seasons, a total of 50 airports in the US and Canada-- including Saint Pierre in the French overseas collectivity of Saint Pierre and Miquelon--will offer non-stop passenger flights to Europe. Data from OAG reveals that these airports will collectively account for 146,706 European take-offs during this period, averaging around 699 daily departures.

The focus here is on the ten airports with the fewest flights to Europe this summer. These airports will collectively contribute just one in every 145 non- stop departures, totaling 1,015 take-offs.

The list includes three Canadian airports, six U.S. airports, and Saint Pierre. Notably, Saint Pierre offers a limited service via Air Saint Pierre to Paris CDG using a Boeing 737-700 wet-leased from ASL Airlines. If excluding Saint Pierre, Quebec City replaces it with its tally of178 one-way flights to Europe.
