WestJet has unveiled its summer 2025 schedule, highlighting a significant expansion in Saskatchewan’s air travel connectivity. The airline is increasing seat capacity across the province by 20%, further solidifying its position as Saskatchewan’s leading air carrier.

Travelers from Regina and Saskatoon will enjoy the most notable growth, with seat capacities rising by 23% and 19%, respectively. This enhanced connectivity will provide Saskatchewan residents with more non-stop travel options, catering to both business and leisure travel demands.

WestJet’s commitment to the region aligns with the growing need for efficient air travel across the province. The expanded schedule underscores the airline’s dedication to meeting the needs of Saskatchewan travelers and supporting the province’s economic and tourism sectors.

“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.”
