WestJet Launches Toronto-Edinburgh Service

WestJet has taken off to Edinburgh from Toronto.

The carrier now offers non-stop service to five European destinations from Toronto this summer that along with Edinburgh includes Glasgow, Dublin, London-Gatwick and Barcelona, Spain.

John Weatherill, WestJet Chief Commercial Officer, said of the launch of the new Edinburgh service: “We are thrilled that Edinburgh is the final European connection to inaugurate from Toronto this summer, rounding out the restoration of our network and strengthening our offerings from Toronto. These cities are some of the world’s most vibrant and iconic destinations and we are working diligently as demand for international travel continues to ramp up.”

WestJet’s newest transatlantic flight will operate during peak season, three-times weekly.

WestJet currently offers service to two Scottish destinations with service from Toronto to Edinburgh and Glasgow and flights between Halifax and Glasgow.
