News / WestJet enhances Edmonton's global connectivity with new US flights to key markets
Airline's summer schedule to provide exclusive service between Alberta's capital and Atlanta, along with new non-stop connections to Nashville and San Francisco
WestJet today, as part of its 2024 summer schedule, unveiled new non-stop service between Edmonton International Airport and Atlanta, Nashville and San Francisco, demonstrating the airline's ongoing commitment to expanding the city's transborder aviation network. The announcement builds on the momentum from summer 2023, when WestJet announced new service to Minneapolis and Seattle, along with strengthened domestic connectivity from Alberta's capital, which will be sustained through 2024.
In celebration of its expanding transborder investments, WestJet, in partnership with Edmonton International Airport, was joined by valued partners from across the region at a special event held at Edmonton Unlimited earlier today.

Additionally, frequent flyers of both airlines will continue to enjoy extensive reciprocal benefits any time they fly with either carrier, including earning and redeeming in their preferred program.
