The upcoming news is that WestJet is exploring Seoul, the busy capital of South Korea. The first route of the airline company to Seoul Incheon International Airport (ICN) will be from Calgary International Airport starting this May.
Introduction of Asia-Pacific Gateway:
This move by WestJet not only expands its network but also makes Calgary a main gateway into the Asia-Pacific region. Flights are scheduled for three days a week; therefore, people traveling from anywhere in Western Canada can easily access one of the liveliest cities in Asia.
Creating Connections:
Until now, Air Canada and Korean Air were the two airlines providing direct flights between Canada and South Korea. However, what distinguishes WestJet is that it operates only Calgary-Seoul flights which gives passengers an opportunity to connect seamlessly between these two vibrant cities.

Apart from diversifying its route network, this move allows WestJet to explore markets outside North America thus increasing its global presence. This will be the second airport in Asia-Pacific where West Jet flies after Tokyo Narita International Airport hence travelers should expect new levels of cultural exchange and travel experience.
A Trio of Successes:
By joining other international carriers like Air Canada and Korean Air, West Jet strengthens ties between Canada and South Korea thereby promoting economic growth as well as people-to-people contacts among nations. Moreover, introduction of flights connecting Calgary with Seoul adds more choices on air travel market giving passengers enhanced flexibility during their trips.
