WestJet service between Prince George and Edmonton begins Saturday

WestJet’s newest route in Prince George will be making its maiden voyage this week.

The airline’s service between Prince George and Edmonton will begin tomorrow (Saturday)

The service was announced in May, along with restored service between Alberta’s capital and Kamloops.

“Restoring service to Kamloops and introducing service to Prince George is a direct reflection of Canadians’ interest in exploring their own backyard this summer,” said John Weatherill, WestJet Executive Vice-President and Chief Commercial Officer.

“With more flights and more seats in key Western Canadian markets, we’re giving Canadians better access to the destinations they rely on for business, leisure and visiting loved ones.”

WestJet Encore will operate these routes twice per week throughout the peak summer travel season onboard the De Havilland Dash 8-400 (Q400) aircraft.
