WestJet Suspends All Flights To The Caribbean And Mexico Until May
Along with the news we just heard from Air Transat, we are now hearing the same thing from WestJet. However, WestJet will not suspending all operations… Instead they will be suspending all flights to the Caribbean and Mexico. The airline says:
“The government asked, and we agreed,” said Ed Sims, WestJet President and CEO. “While we know that air travel is responsible for less than two per cent of cases since the start of the crisis, and even less today, we recognize the Government of Canada’s ask is a precautionary measure. We also note that the overwhelming majority of quarantine exemptions, well over 90 per cent in fact, are connected to land borders and not air travel. We have responded to their request and will suspend service to destinations in Mexico and the Caribbean.”
