The partnership will start on 30 March, when Virgin’s inaugural takes off. Calgary-based WestJet will offer connections to its hub as well as 12 other destinations, including Edmonton, Vancouver, Winnipeg and Ottawa.
The deal was flagged last year and has now been fully detailed. The two airlines will co-locate at Toronto Pearson International airport’s Terminal 3. Passengers will be able to travel on one ticket and transfer without having to collect and re-check their baggage to their final destination.
