CALGARY, Jan. 17, 2017 /CNW/ - This morning's departure of
WestJet flight 321 marked the start of non-stop service to

"WestJet continues to offer Canadians new routes and additional
non-stop flights along with low-priced options," said Brian Znotins, WestJet Vice-President, Network
Planning. "Our compelling fares, caring guest service and
convenient schedules for travellers represent more opportunities to
connect business sectors that are so integral to economies across
Canada. In addition, these routes
