WestJet extends Korean Air codeshare to six Asian cities
Canada’s WestJet is expanding its reach in Asia with an updated airline codeshare arrangement with Korean Air.
It comes as WestJet launches new seasonal flights from Calgary to Seoul, beginning 17 May 2024.
The Seoul flights will operate up to three times per week.
WestJet will deploy Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft on the route.
The enhanced airline codeshare pact with Korea adds six new cities to Southeast Asia and Hong Kong via Seoul.
These are Bangkok, Hanoi, Danang and Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam, Singapore and Hong Kong.
“As we prepare for WestJet’s inaugural flights between Calgary and Incheon, the timing of this codeshare expansion is ideal,” said Jeff Hagen, WestJet VP of Commercial Development.
“We are enhancing connectivity to more destinations in Asia for our guests.”
