So it turns out YOW is gaining 1-stop, same-plane service to LGW on WS. The 73G from YYT will originate in YOW with the same flight numbers.

WS 24
17:30 YOW - YYT 1h59 stop - 08:00 LGW

WS 25
9:20 LGW - YYT 1h53 stop - 14:51 YOW

It's strange that WS didn't include this in their big announcements as they heavily hyped the fact that the GLA and DUB routes are 1-stop, same-plane direct service out of YYZ.

So look at that, while not nonstop, new transatlantic service for YOW without the need to make a connection. 1-stop's the next best thing to nonstop.

Psst WS, don't keep this new direct YOW-LGW service a secret.
