"This agreement not only provides WestJet guests with seamless single-connection access to Saudia's extensive global network but also strengthens inbound tourism and business links."

The agreement was signed by Arved von zur Muehlen, Chief Commercial Officer at Saudia, and John Weatherill, Executive Vice-President and Chief Commercial Officer at WestJet.

Itineraries between WestJet and Saudia's networks are now available with single point check-in and through-checked bags.
