🎉 We are celebrating 10 years of flying to Dublin! ✈️🍀 Yesterday, we had the honour of commemorating this milestone at The Calgary Airport Authority alongside Tourism Ireland. To mark the occasion, we brought a bit of Ireland to the gate with lively Irish dancers, a talented fiddler, Irish themed sleep masks and more! It's been an incredible journey, fostering connectivity between Canada and Dublin over the past decade. Here's to many more years of strengthening bonds and creating lasting memories together! 🇨🇦✈️🇮🇪 #FillYourHeartWithIreland #WestJet #TravelTuesday #10YearsStrong Laureen Regan

New day, new route announcements! ✈️ We're pleased to share not one but three new routes connecting Western Canada to three major U.S cities! With our new daily service connecting Regina Airport Authority - YQR and Minneapolis, Edmonton International Airport (YEG) and Atlanta, and Vancouver Airport Authority to Detroit, there will be more key tourism and economic development opportunities for each city as we enhance transborder service to some of the world's largest global hubs.

This week, we had the privilege of attending the private screening of "Return to the Falls" in Winnipeg, hosted by the Cree Nation of Pimicikamak (Cross Lake). This documentary sheds light on the profound experiences of Elder Betty Ross at St. Joseph's residential school, offering vital teachings on reconciliation. As we reflect on the history and impact of the residential school system, we recognize the bravery and resilience of survivors like Elder Betty Ross. Her truth is a poignant reminder of the challenges faced and the strength exhibited by Indigenous communities. We're incredibly proud to support this documentary as we commit to listening, learning, and honoring the truth. We extend our deepest gratitude to Elder Betty Ross for her vulnerability and courage in sharing her experiences.
