Canada-based airline WestJet will extend its low-cost service to Bermuda throughout the winter, Premier and Transport Minister Ewart Brown announced this afternoon.

Dr. Brown told the House of Assembly that, from November 1, WestJet would continue flying between the Island and Toronto on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays; before resuming a seven-day-a-week service from next May.

“We believe that this new service will continue to prove attractive for our visitors from Canada and provide another option for Bermudians seeking to travel abroad,” the Premier said.
