WestJet is adding more flights between Windsor and Calgary this summer
Windsor travelers looking to explore Canada this summer will soon have another option.
WestJet announced Monday that it will increase the frequency of flights between Windsor and Calgary.
The airline plans to offer three weekly flights between June 15 and June 29, and to increase that to daily flights from June 29 to September 5.
Windsor International Airport’s CEO told AM800 News it’s exciting to see more flights being added for the summer.
The additional WestJet flights follow the recently announced Flair routes, which include two direct flights per week between Windsor and Vancouver.
Windsor-Vancouver flights will operate from June 10 to October 28, while Flair will operate the Windsor-Halifax route three times a week from June 7.
“It’s going to be a very busy summer with plenty of choice for residents of Windsor and Essex County, and beyond, for direct flights,” Galvin said.
He told AM800 that they are trying to connect people to the places they want to travel to.
“Obviously Air Canada is a great partner for Toronto and Porter for Billy Bishop,” he says. “More choice and to make YQG what we really hope is people think of it first and say ‘can I fly from my hometown airport?'”
