WestJet Cutting Back On Scheduled Flights From Calgary, Edmonton

The Canadian Press, 25 Jan, 2016 01:01 PM

CALGARY — WestJet is cutting the number of scheduled flights from Calgary and Edmonton.

Its summer schedule includes six fewer flights a day out of Calgary and five fewer daily from the provincial capital.

WestJet (TSX:WJA) says it's transferring more of its capacity to Eastern Canada.

That means more trips between Toronto, Ottawa and Montreal as well as to Atlantic destinations like Halifax and Fredericton.
