WestJet brings back Halifax to Paris summer service in 2025

WestJet has announced its summer schedule for 2025, and it includes an expansion to routes from Halifax to Europe.

The airline says it will be restoring service between Halifax and Paris, which was scrapped in 2022. The route will be offered four times per week from May 16 to Oct. 25.

“Today’s announcement in Halifax underscores our ongoing commitment to Nova Scotia and our incredible airport partners as we building the city’s leisure network with seamless seasonal connectivity to and from Europe,” said Andy Gibbons, WestJet, Vice-President, External Affairs.

Direct flights from Halifax to Edinburgh, Dublin and London will also return in summer 2025.

Service to Dublin and Edinburgh will start one month earlier than in 2024, with flights beginning in mid-May. Service to London begins April 28.

“Increasing flights to and from Nova Scotia is good for businesses in Halifax and across the province. Local businesses are excited about WestJet adding additional capacity to bring visitors to Halifax from European capitals and from Western Canada to spend their tourism dollars in our province,” said Patrick Sullivan, President & CEO, Halifax Chamber of Commerce.
