WestJet’s summer 2025 schedule expands Saskatchewan’s connectivity with 20 per cent with province-wide growth in seat capacity, cementing the airline’s position as Saskatchewan’s number one air carrier. With 23 per cent growth in seat capacity from Regina and 19 per cent growth from Saskatoon, guests from across Saskatchewan will benefit from enhanced non-stop connections this summer, fulfilling the province’s demand for business and leisure travel.
“We are thrilled to reaffirm our commitment to Saskatchewan and connecting Canadians from coast-to-coast with enhanced service from Regina and Saskatoon,” said John Weatherill, WestJet Executive Vice-President and Chief Commercial Officer. “This summer, WestJet will increase Saskatchewan’s connectivity to domestic and transborder destinations, while continuing to offer guests more affordability, flexibility and choice.”
“WestJet’s massive investment in building the Regina Airport’s flight capacity this year has had a very positive impact on the economy in southern Saskatchewan,” says James Bogusz, President and CEO of the Regina Airport. “The unprecedented access they are providing to major Canadian markets, in addition to daily non-stop service to Minneapolis, and a full schedule of winter getaways is absolutely fantastic for our entire region.”
“Our airline partnerships are what helps to define our success. Driven in part by WestJet’s steadfast commitment to our community, YXE Saskatoon Airport achieved unprecedented levels of summer passenger travel,” says Stephen Maybury, President and CEO of YXE Saskatoon Airport. “WestJet’s dedication to our community enriches the travel experience for our passengers by offering increased flexibility and destination options, while also fueling trade, tourism and regional economic prosperity.”
