WestJet is growing its tran-Atlantic service with new flights from England to six Canadian cities. From spring next year, travelers can fly onboard WestJet’s fleet of Boeing 767-300ER aircraft to Vancouver (YVR), Edmonton (YEG), Calgary (YYC), Winnipeg (YWG) and Toronto (YYZ) and to St. John’s (YYT) on Boeing Next-Generation 737-700 series from London Gatwick (LGW).

All London flights to Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton and Winnipeg will operate on one of WestJet’s four 767-300ERW extended-range aircrafts, with passengers flying to St John’s on a Boeing Next-Generation 737. Accommodating 262 guests, the 767s feature a 24-seat Plus cabin, including wider seats and more legroom. Hot meals are available and the entire aircraft is equipped with WestJet’s new in-flight entertainment and wireless connectivity system including 110-volt and/or USB power at every seat.

“Non-stop service between London and Canadian cities is a natural next step in the evolution of WestJet and specifically, our transatlantic service,” said Bob Cummings, executive vice president, sales, marketing and guest experience, WestJet. “With the addition of our 767 aircraft, we will now bring our low fares and fun, friendly, people-driven service to England and help connect family and friends on both sides of the Atlantic.”
