WestJet announces daily service connecting Regina & Minneapolis

WestJet has announced a new, year-round, daily service connecting Regina and Minneapolis for the airline's 2024 summer schedule. 

The route is Regina's first year-round transborder service since 2016 and marks the province's second direct route to the Midwest United States, following the launch of WestJet's year-round service between Saskatoon and Minneapolis, launched in June earlier this year.

"We are thrilled to answer the call of the community and further our commitment to Regina and surrounding area by bringing vital year-round transborder connectivity with service to Minneapolis, beginning this summer," says Jared Mikoch-Gerke, WestJet Director of Alliances & Airport Affairs. "Our newest investment in Regina will further support the economic growth of the region and unlock business and leisure travel opportunities, as we accelerate providing affordable travel to our guests."

The schedule

Delta codeshare  

Guests travelling beyond Minneapolis will have access to a  network and benefits through WestJet's relationship with Delta Air Lines. 

This includes codeshare flights to over 70 connecting destinations, now accessible with only one stop from Regina; the ability to earn and redeem WestJet Rewards on both airlines; and top tier frequent flyer benefits through the entire journey.

WestJet guests have access to Delta's broad network on a single purchased ticket with check-in for all flights at the first departure, baggage tagged to their final destination and lounge access for select guests.
