While WestJet Cargo can be proud of its impressive achievements in the last twelve months, there is a lot more to be expected from the Canadian carrier in 2023
For WestJet Cargo, 2022 will certainly be a year to remember. The last few months’ essential changes have been key in building the foundations for its future success. To start with, working with GTA contributed to massively increasing its services and shipping capacities in Canada. Moreover, launching a new cargo platform in partnership with SmartKargo, new routes such as Los Angeles (LAX) and Orlando (MCO) and the announcement of 4 dedicated freighters to start operating in the new year have all contributed to affirming WestJet Cargo’s position as a strong player in the demanding Canadian air freight market.
But it is above all by strengthening the team dedicated to cargo that WestJet Cargo has distinguished itself. The appointment of Kirsten De Bruijn as Executive Vice President, followed by the arrival of Bharat Bhatia as Head of Cargo Operations and Hao Cai as Manager of Network Planning, Revenue Management & Interline Analytics will certainly reap great rewards for the carrier in the coming months.
