WestJet is trimming some U.S. routes, but adding more service to Europe.
Published reports from Aeroroutes and Simple Flying say WestJet is reducing flights from Calgary to Orange County effective 27APR, going from seven to four flights per week.
Aeroroutes said WestJet will reduce YYZ-FLL flights from seven to six per week effective 27APR and then go to five per week from 26MAY to 01SEP, 2025. It also will reduce YYZ-LAS from six or seven flights per week to five effective 27APR. That’s down from 11 per week in the peak season of last year.
Toronto to LAX will go from seven flights a week to six as of 16MAY, while Winnipeg to LAX drops from three to two weekly flights as of 27APR.
SimpleFlying says WestJet will go from eight to 11 flights per week on both its YYZ-DUB and YYZ-EDI routes, but didn’t list a start date.
The Herald in Scotland reports WestJet's route between Edinburgh and Toronto began in 2022 with a three-times-per-week service, before the frequency was increased to daily in 2024. It also notes that the WS Halifax to Edinburgh route will operate three times per week from 15MAY to 14OCT, 2025.
Simple Flying also said WestJet will boost flights from Calgary to Iceland from six days a week to seven. All the added flights to Europe will be on a 737 MAX8 aircraft, the website said.
WestJet previously announced it will begin flights from YHZ to AMS on 22MAY.
When all its European services are included, WS has now scheduled 86 weekly flights, up 12% from last year, Simple Flying reports.
