Virgin Atlantic and WestJet have announced an expansion of their codeshare agreement, set to take effect on March 30. This development coincides with Virgin Atlantic's introduction of direct flights from London Heathrow Airport to Toronto Pearson International Airport.
The expanded agreement will facilitate connections from the United Kingdom to 13 Canadian destinations via Toronto Pearson, including major hubs like Calgary International Airport and Edmonton International Airport. Virgin Atlantic highlighted that both airlines aim to enhance "vital business, leisure, and visiting friends-and-family connections between Canada and the UK and key connecting regions, including India."
For customer convenience, Virgin Atlantic will operate out of Terminal 3 at Toronto Pearson, aligning with WestJet's operations. The airline plans to collaborate with the Greater Toronto Airports Authority (GTAA) and Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) for seamless connectivity under this new arrangement.
