WestJet Adding London-To-Toronto Flights

More flights to Toronto are being added at the London International Airport.

WestJet has announced it will begin flying from London to Toronto twice a day, beginning next week.

The airline's Encore service will begin shuttling passengers from London to Toronto on Tuesday. Currently, only Air Canada offers daily flights between the two cities.

“With WestJet providing more competition in our growing airport, air fares will be reduced, travellers will have greater choice, and it will stimulate more travel,” says Mike Seabrook, president and CEO of the London International Airport. "This is great for the consumer.”
