WestJet (WS), Canada’s second-largest airline, has removed 13 international destinations from its network during 2026 as it reshapes its schedule across Europe, the Caribbean, Latin America and the United States.
Etihad Airways (EY) is entering 2026 with its strongest North American network in the airline’s history, offering nearly one million round-trip seats across the United States and Canada.
Etihad Airways will start the first nonstop Abu Dhabi to Calgary flights in November 2026, expanding direct Middle East to Western Canada connectivity.
WestJet Airlines (WS) will cancel 9 U.S. routes from cities like Vancouver (YVR) and Calgary (YYC) due to lower demand from Canadians.
