A battle is underway in the sky as WestJet has announced some crazy deals following NewLeaf’s announcement of cheap fares across Canada.
WestJet competing against NewLeaf for customer dollars spells good news for those looking to travel from coast to coast. On Wednesday, NewLeaf launched a no-frills airline service with one-way fares from as low as $89. Now, WestJet is matching the new airline and currently has flights on sale that are even cheaper and round trip.
If you take to Google Flights you will be able find flights from Kelowna, Vancouver, Abbotsford, Regina, Saskatoon, Winnipeg, and Toronto at a cost ranging from $156 to 302 round trip. There is one catch though, these are not non-stop flights. But, if you don’t mind taking a little longer to get to your destination, you could save as much as 40 per cent off the usual cost between these destinations.
It will most likely only be a matter of time before Air Canada follows suit and drops the cost of their flights as well. By the looks of things, it would be a good idea to search around before deciding which airline will give you the best bang for your buck.
