Flying hasn’t been easy for many travelers lately.

Flying hasn’t been easy lately.

From increasing airfare and fees to delayed and canceled flights, getting from Point A to Point B might be a challenge these days. Staffing shortages and already reduced flight schedules are partially to blame, and experts don’t see the airline industry correcting itself anytime soon. But, in the wake of thousands of canceled flights and traveler nightmares, one airline will resume servicing FOUR routes from Orlando International Airport!

It’s about to be just a little bit easier to get to Disney World, as Orlando International Airport and WestJet have announced the airline will resume service once per week to four different destinations in Canada!

Great news! Our friends @WestJet will resume 1x/week service to these charming routes:
?? St. Johns, Newfoundland – Oct 8
?? Vancouver, British Columbia – Nov 12
?? Regina, Saskatchewan – Dec 16
?? Saskatoon, Saskatchewan – Dec 16
