Why Would Westjet Passengers Fly to Minneapolis?

Even though your final destination isn’t Minneapolis, there is a small hidden perk. If you book your flight with Westjet you will be able to book onwards flights out of MSP as Delta Air Lines operates many routes from this hub and is a partner airline to WS.

So for some travellers this might be a good opportunity to get to your final destination while flying out of an airport near home, such as Saskatoon (YXE).
