WestJet Drops 2027 Long‑Haul Plans to Glasgow, Copenhagen, and Madrid

WestJet has announced the removal of all flights planned for 2027 from Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) to Glasgow, and from Halifax / Stanfield International Airport (YHZ) to Copenhagen and Madrid. The airline, Canada’s second‑largest, had only served Copenhagen and Madrid in 2026. The decision leaves passengers who had booked or were planning to travel to those European cities without direct options from Canada, forcing them to seek alternative carriers or routes. While the exact reasons remain undisclosed, the move signals a reassessment of WestJet’s long‑haul network and its impact on travelers’ connectivity.
