.WestJet has added Winnipeg as a gateway to Belize.
WestJet has announced daily seasonal service between Calgary and New York LaGuardia, bolstering existing service from its global hub to New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport.
“There is a significant appetite for flights to New York, either for visiting the city itself to watch a Broadway show, concert, catch a Yankees game, visit Central Park, or just to connect onward,” said Daniel Fajardo, VP of Network and Schedule Planning. “The addition of this route boosts our ability to meet this demand and provide guests with more options.”
The airline says the decision to grow guest capacity from Calgary to New York underscores its commitment to operating as Canada’s leading leisure carrier and comes as travel demand remains strong across North America, particularly during the summer season.
Flights between Calgary and New York LaGuardia will be available for purchase starting at 10 a.m. MST on January 20, 2025, for travel during May 24 and August 30, while year-round flying remains in place connecting Calgary and New York through John F. Kennedy.
