Korean Air and WestJet have expanded their codeshare agreement to include a new transpacific route set to be launched by the Canadian carrier to Seoul.
A selection of 50 new routes starting over the coming weeks, including services being launched by Air Canada, Delta Air Lines, United Airlines and WestJet.
Initial operating experience of a recently developed drag-reduction package on a Delta Air Lines Boeing 737-800 indicates cruise fuel-burn savings of up to 2%.
Canadian carrier WestJet says the 2023-24 winter schedule is driven by high demand for leisure travel, and it features a new service to Montego Bay, Jamaica.
Alexis von Hoensbroech’s arrival has coincided with a pivot toward leisure travel that bolsters the airline’s growing presence in domestic Canadian markets.
Canada’s WestJet Group will shut down recently acquired Sunwing Airlines and incorporate its 18 Boeing 737s into WestJet mainline operations next year.
