SAS, WestJet plan to launch transatlantic codeshare this summer

Scandinavian Airlines and WestJet have formed a new partnership, which the airlines claim will significantly enhance connectivity between Canada and Scandinavia.

The newly signed interline agreement enables travel between the two regions, with combined itineraries, single check-in, and through-checked baggage. SAS and WestJet plan to launch a full codeshare later this summer.

SAS now flies year-round between Copenhagen and Toronto Pearson. Once the codeshare is in place, WestJet will place its code on this nonstop service, as well as on SAS-operated flights connecting key European cities such as London, Paris, and Amsterdam with destinations across Scandinavia.

At the same time, SAS travelers will gain access to WestJet’s growing Canadian domestic network from North American gateways — opening up one-ticket travel to cities like Calgary, Vancouver, Ottawa, Edmonton, and Winnipeg.
