WestJet Cargo has unveiled its expanded 2025/2026 winter schedule, introducing five new destinations and boosting service across Latin America, the Caribbean, and Asia to support Canadian businesses during the peak season.

New destinations include Panama City, Guadalajara, Tepic, Havana, and Managua, with year-round service to Mexico City also debuting this winter. These additions open up fresh trade routes and enhance cargo capacity in sun markets critical to Canadian importers and exporters.

While total departures across the network will rise by 3% year-on-year, WestJet Cargo says capacity will remain strong thanks to the reconfiguration of ex-Sunwing and Swoop aircraft into a more cargo-friendly layout.

In total, the airline will serve 305 routes and 62 sun destinations this winter, with a 6% increase in capacity to Latin America and the Caribbean, including high-demand markets like Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, and Mexico.

“WestJet Cargo’s expanded winter schedule is a direct response to our customers’ needs for greater connectivity and reliable service to sun destinations and beyond,” said Amanda Ierfino, vice president sales and cargo. “By strengthening our cargo network and investing in key routes, we are enabling Canadian businesses to grow and thrive, whether shipping domestically or internationally.”
