WestJet adds four new domestic flights for summer 2026

WestJet is expanding its domestic network with new non-stop summer service between Calgary (YYC) and Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario (YAM), North Bay, Ontario (YYB) and Campbell River, British Columbia (YBL). WestJet is also adding non-stop seasonal service between Terrace, B.C. (YXT) and Edmonton (YEG), strengthening domestic connectivity within Western Canada.
John Weatherill, WestJet Group Executive Vice-President and Chief Commercial Officer, said that: “Adding these routes to our summer 2026 schedule reinforces WestJet’s commitment to strengthening regional connectivity and supporting tourism and economic growth across Canada.”
Weatherill continued: “The new routes will give guests from across Canada greater choice to explore their own backyard, as well as more efficient access to onward connections through WestJet’s home province.”
Improving access between Sault Ste. Marie, Campbell River and North Bay to WestJet’s global hub in Calgary will connect guests to destinations across the Americas, Europe and Asia, while also offering seamless connectivity for Alberta-based tourists to uncover paths less travelled in British Columbia and Ontario.
Beyond the four new routes, WestJet is adding additional flights between some of its most popular domestic routes between Eastern and Western Canada.
The airline will increase domestic capacity at Halifax Stanfield International Airport by almost 50% with significant increases in flight frequencies to Edmonton, Vancouver, Winnipeg, Calgary, Toronto, Regina and Saskatoon. WestJet is also doubling its capacity between Deer Lake,
By improving East-West domestic connectivity, WestJet is helping stimulate travel across Canada. Canadians from every region will benefit from better access to Atlantic Canada, supporting tourism, commerce, community connections and seamless onward connections to Europe.
These routes also support outbound domestic travel from Atlantic Canada, allowing East Coast Canadians to access more of their country than ever before.
