WestJet is celebrating another milestone in operational excellence, securing a place among the world\u2019s most on-time airlines for the second month in a row. Earning back-to-back accolades in the\u00a0Cirium On-Time Performance Report,<\/a>\u00a0WestJet is the most on-time airline in North America for the month of June and the entirety of Q2, a new record milestone. In addition to this important accomplishment, WestJet was recognized as the 6th most on-time airline amongst all major global airlines.<\/p>\n

WestJet completed nearly 17,000 flights in June, with 86.4 per cent arriving on time \u2013 almost four percentage points ahead of the next highest-ranked North American carrier. Combined with a completion factor of 99.43 per cent, the results demonstrate a consistently reliable operation. WestJet\u2019s June results cap a strong quarter for the airline, with on-time performance steadily improving throughout the spring.<\/p>\n

WestJet completes 180-seat retrofit ahead of schedule<\/strong><\/p>\n

In addition to executing another exceptional on-time schedule, WestJet\u2019s operations teams completed the retrofit of its remaining Boeing 737 aircraft (previously configured with 180 seats) ahead of schedule. The project, which was carefully coordinated alongside WestJet\u2019s busy spring flying schedule, standardized the airline\u2019s narrowbody fleet, reducing complexity in day-to-day operations. Completing the retrofit ahead of the peak summer travel season positions the airline to deliver a more consistent guest experience while supporting operational reliability and on-time performance. The retrofit project was originally planned to be completed this fall; however, WestJet proudly wrapped up the project part-way through June.<\/p>\n
