Nearly 100 destinations available via connections at Toronto Pearson
CALGARY, Oct. 22, 2015 /CNW/ - WestJet announced today it will launch new, twice-daily service between London, Ontario, and Toronto Pearson International Airport on board WestJet Encore's fleet of Canadian-made Bombardier Q400 NextGen aircraft beginning in March 2016.
The new service opens up 52 new WestJet destinations and 47 new codeshare destinations via Toronto Pearson to Eastern Canada, the United States, Caribbean, Mexico and Europe.
