WestJet starting direct flights from Toronto to Barcelona this spring

WestJet has announced it will be adding beautiful Barcelona to its growing presence in Europe with weekly, non-stop service from Toronto, beginning next spring.

The new flights depart from Toronto to Barcelona three-times weekly, starting May 24 through October 21.

“Next spring, Toronto Pearson passengers will have another option for non-stop travel to Europe with WestJet’s upcoming service to Barcelona,” said Kim Stangeby, Vice President and Chief Strategy Officer, Greater Toronto Airports Authority.

“International destinations continue to be in high demand for travellers in the region and we’re excited to be able to provide additional connectivity to this vibrant city.”

WestJet’s Toronto-Barcelona service will be operated on its Boeing 767-300 ER aircraft, seating 262 guests and featuring the airline’s Premium and Economy cabins.

Flights are timed to optimize connectivity to and from flights within Ontario and Eastern Canada at WestJet’s Toronto hub. All flights provide for WestJet Rewards accumulation and redemption along with additional benefits for WestJet Rewards top-tier members.

“The Spanish Tourism Office is very happy about the new flight,” said Laura Pena Alberdi, Spanish Tourism Office Director.

“This new destination non-stop from Toronto will give WestJet’s clients the possibility of visiting this beautiful Mediterranean and cosmopolitan city, with its rich history and art marvels. We are certain Canadians will also enjoy Barcelona as a gateway to other incredible sites and cities in Spain.”
