WestJet announced (17-Dec-08) the addition of four new seasonal destinations and new seasonal non-stop service to many Canadian and U.S. cities as part of its 2009 Summer schedule.
The four new destinations expand WestJet's network to 55 cities across Canada, the United States, Mexico and the Caribbean.
New seasonal non-stop service between Edmonton and Yellowknife, and Toronto and Sydney, N.S., begins on May 4 and 5, 2009, respectively. WestJet will also launch new seasonal non-stop service between Calgary and San Diego on 01-Jun-09, and between Calgary and San Francisco on 02-Jun-09.
Bob Cummings, WestJet's Executive Vice-President of Guest Experience and Marketing said, "These new destinations, along with expanded service to other Canadian and U.S. cities, are part of our ongoing efforts to bring our world-class guest experience to more and more travellers. Despite a challenging economic climate, we are undeterred in our strategy and will continue to position WestJet to become the market share leader in Canada by 2013.
He added, "We are extremely proud of these new routes. We are excited to be flying to Canada's north for the first time in our history and look forward to connecting more Canadians with Yellowknife and the Northwest Territories. We also look forward to giving our guests the chance to sample the rich and unique culture of Sydney and Cape Breton Island."
Bob Cummings said, “The new U.S. destinations represent a significant expansion of WestJet's service to California. We know that our guests already enjoy visiting Los Angeles and Palm Springs, and San Diego and San Francisco will be just as popular. These new destinations move us closer to making WestJet and WestJet Vacations a leading airline and vacation provider into the United States and, with year-round service to Montego Bay, to the Caribbean as well."
