WestJet, one of Canada’s largest airlines, has confirmed it is to return to Glasgow Airport in 2026 with the launch of direct services to Toronto.
The inaugural flight to Toronto Pearson International airport will take off on May 15 with WestJet operating four services per week using one of its growing fleet of Boeing 737 Max aircraft.
It is the first time WestJet will have operated at Glasgow since 2022, with the new service further strengthening links between the economic powerhouses of Scotland and Canada.
The new Toronto route will not only provide access to the fifth largest city in North America, it will also provide further onward connectivity across Canada thanks to WestJet’s extensive network from Toronto.
Canada is one of Scotland’s largest international tourism markets. Approximately 4.8 million Canadians claim Scottish ancestry and the two countries have always enjoyed strong cultural and historic ties.
