“We are delighted that Edinburgh will be the latest European connection to open from Toronto this summer, completing the restoration of our network and strengthening our offering from Toronto. These cities are some of the world’s most vibrant and iconic destinations and we are working diligently as demand for international travel continues to increase,” said John Weatherill, WestJet’s Chief Commercial Officer.
