LONDON – WestJet has announced their network will return to near pre-pandemic levels in Summer 2022.

The biggest change is for Western Manitoba, Canada. WestJet is the only commercial carrier to serve the region.

“We recognize the importance of our investments in Manitoba, as the province works to rebuild from the impacts of the pandemic,” said John Weatherill, Chief Commercial Officer, WestJet.

“This summer, we know Manitobans are ready to welcome visitors and travel again themselves.”

“Our service is critical to restoring the pipeline of western Canadians who visit Manitoba for both business or leisure and we are committed to working together with our partners to expedite the region’s recovery.”

WestJet will add several domestic destinations, and one route to the USA, Las Vegas. With the direct flight to Calgary, passengers from Winnipeg will be able to connect to 51 destinations. The flight details are:
