“WestJet is again providing additional service to benefit both the business traveller as well as the leisure guest,” WestJet vice-president Brian Znotins said in a release. “Since 2013, we have invested in providing 40 per cent more capacity for our guests in the community. With today’s increases, we will have more than 80 daily departures, and that means increased connectivity as well as convenience. We are certain business travellers and vacationers alike will be pleased with the flexibility and timeliness our enhanced schedule provides.”

WestJet will launch a three-time weekly service between Vancouver and Mexico City on March 15 with the route moving to daily service on April 29.
