Flights to Calgary on WestJet Continue into Winter Season and Beyond

Prince George, BC— Northern BC travelers looking to escape the winter season now have more options finding sun thanks to WestJet’s non-stop flight to Calgary (YYC). WestJet recently announced the service has been added to their booking systems for the winter season and beyond.

President and CEO of the Prince George Airport Authority, John Gibson says “this is great news for the traveling public heading east or to find sun. The connections out of YYC save people time and money. WestJet’s seasonal non- stop flight to Puerto Vallarta continues to be a very strong service, however, the sun destination choices out of Calgary are extensive.”

“The non-stop to Calgary opens up some of our favorite sun destinations for snow birds including Cabo San Lucas, Cancun, Phoenix and Varadero” said John Weatherill, WestJet’s Director, Network and Schedule Planning. “This flight also connects to Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Mazatlan and Palm Springs as well.”

The winter schedule has the nonstop flight leaving Prince George at 6:00am PST, getting into YYC at 8:28am MST. The flight then leaves Calgary at 10:25pm MST getting into Prince George at 11:10pmPST.

Starting October 26th, this 90minute flight will be operated on the 78 seat, made-in-Canada, Bombardier Q400 NextGen aircraft.
