WestJet adds Aruba and Kingston, Jamaica

When will WestJet start adding Central America and northern South American destinations?

I'd love to be able to fly WestJet to Panama.

Interesting additions to the destination line-up. I liked this part:

WestJet will also extend its non-stop service from seasonal to year-round between the following cities:

■Vancouver and Kona
■Vancouver and Kauai
■Toronto and Santa Clara, Cuba
■Toronto and San Juan, Puerto Rico


Getting a little more competition into SJU for the cruise market is a good thing. ^

I thought WestJet flew to Maui year round already?

neither of those Hawaii destinations are Maui. Kona is on the Big Island and Kauai is the island of Kauai.

Oops, misread it. I thought it said Kahului. Good to know there are other options now in summer besides Maui & Honolulu

Keep hoping that WS buy something other than a 737, because their existing fleet wont do it. It's 375 miles further from YYC-PTY than YYC-HNL

Wouldn't the market be from Toronto to PTY or Costa Rica? I doubt they'd do it from Calgary and if they did, they'd probably only want 125 seats!

First, they should start YUL-LHR/CDG.
