WestJet and Icelandair have signed a reciprocal codeshare agreement offering travellers on both sides of the Atlantic enhanced access to a broader network of destinations with the ease of a single booking and ticket, as well as through checked baggage.
Pending regulatory approval, WestJet guests will be able to seamlessly access more than 10 destinations across Europe via a convenient connection at Keflavík International Airport (KEF).
Later this month, WestJet will begin non-stop service to KEF from Edmonton and Winnipeg and will resume seasonal summer flying between KEF and Calgary. These routes will be supported by WestJet’s codeshare partnership with Icelandair, opening easy onward connections to Icelandair’s European network beyond Reykjavik through multiple Canadian cities.
In addition to the benefits available to WestJet guests travelling to Europe, travel into Canada will now be easier for European and Icelandic travellers with Icelandair guests able to seamlessly connect with one stop to a collection of Canadian cities across WestJet’s domestic network.
