Today, WestJet introduced WestJet Link, which is a new air service operating under a purchase agreement with Pacific Coastal Airline.

This link will connect communities of Lethbridge, Lloydminster, Medicine Hat, Cranbrook and Prince George to WestJet’s expanding network at YYC Calgary International Airport. The plane will be a Pacific Coastal Airline’s aircraft painted with WestJet’s signature colours.

These new routes will offer more flights and seating to more destinations than any other airline.

All link flights will use the 34-seat Saab 340B aircraft operated by Pacific Coastal Airlines. Every aircraft will provide six seats available in WestJet Plus. Advanced boarding, zero charge for two checked bags and seating at the front will also be offered.

"We are very excited to have non-stop service between Prince George and Calgary again with service provided by WestJet and Pacific Coastal Airlines, both Prince George Airport partners. Calgary is the number one unserved market requested by the greater Prince George community," said John Gibson, President and CEO of the Prince George Airport Authority.
