Flying across the pond to ‘the city of love’ is about to get a lot easier.
WestJet is bringing back its direct flight between Halifax and Paris in its upcoming summer schedule, for the first time since 2022.
The airline says it’s part of their partnership with Air France.
President & CEO of the Halifax International Airport Authority, Joyce Carter says, they are delighted to bring the non-stop flight back.
“This route, which has operated in past summer seasons, is extremely popular and will expand our region’s connectivity with Western Europe, supporting our position as an important Canadian gateway. We look forward to being the first stop for even more European visitors to our region next summer, strengthening tourism activity and growth.”
The flight to Paris will start in May, in addition to service from Halifax to Dublin and Edinburgh, which is one month earlier than last year.
Flying from Halifax to London will begin in April.
These direct flights will continue through until October 2025.
