DAWSON CREEK, B.C. – WestJet has announced new daily flights between Dawson Creek and Calgary.
The new year-round service will start in April of this year. WestJet created a capacity purchase agreement with Pacific Coastal Airlines and has been using its fleet of 34-seat Saab 340B aircraft to operate from other small communities like Cranbrook, Lethbridge, Lloydminster and Medicine Hat.

“The City of Dawson Creek is pleased to welcome WestJet to our community,” said Dale Bumstead, Mayor of the City of Dawson Creek. “Dawson Creek is the hub of economic opportunity in the South Peace Region, and WestJet service will further enhance these opportunities by providing our airport with additional destinations.
