Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) and WestJet are entering into a new partnership that will significantly strengthen connectivity between Canada and Scandinavia – and this is just the beginning.

SASThe newly signed interline agreement enables smooth travel between the two regions, with combined itineraries, single check-in, and through-checked baggage. But more importantly, it marks the first phase of a broader collaboration: SAS and WestJet plan to launch a full codeshare later this summer.
SAS now flies year-round between Copenhagen (CPH) and Toronto Pearson (YYZ), and once the codeshare is in place, WestJet will place its code on this nonstop service, as well as on SAS-operated flights connecting key European cities such as London, Paris, and Amsterdam with destinations across Scandinavia.
At the same time, SAS travelers will gain access to WestJet’s growing Canadian domestic network from North American gateways — opening up convenient one-ticket travel to cities like Calgary, Vancouver, Ottawa, Edmonton, and Winnipeg.
“This partnership lays the foundation for a long-term collaboration that will benefit travelers on both sides of the Atlantic. Together with WestJet, we’re not only connecting Scandinavia with more destinations across Canada — we’re also opening up new ways to reach Europe from key Canadian cities. And with our planned codeshare, even more seamless options are just around the corner,” says Paul Verhagen, Chief Commercial Officer at SAS.
Through this interline arrangement, WestJet customers will also be able to book travel to 29 destinations across Denmark, Sweden, and Norway — including major cities like Copenhagen, Oslo, Stockholm, Gothenburg, and Luleå.
“We’re pleased to welcome SAS as our latest interline partner, creating new two-way travel opportunities between Canada and key destinations across Northern Europe. This partnership not only enhances connectivity for WestJet guests heading to Scandinavia but also opens up smoother access for Nordic travellers looking to experience the best of Canada through our growing domestic network,” says John Weatherill, WestJet Executive Vice-President and Chief Commercial Officer.
SAS, recently recognized as the most punctual airline in world, offers reliable onward connections throughout the Nordic region — an advantage for travelers seeking smooth and efficient journeys.
The interline agreement, signed recently during the IATA AGM in Delhi, will be available for booking from June 26, 2025.
