WestJet and Icelandair launch reciprocal codeshare linking Canada, Iceland and Europe

WestJet and Icelandair have announced a reciprocal codeshare agreement that will give travellers new one-stop access between Canada, Iceland and Europe. The deal was unveiled at the 2026 IATA Annual General Meeting in Rio de Janeiro.

Under the partnership, WestJet customers will be able to book itineraries via Keflavík International Airport to more than 10 European destinations, while Icelandair passengers will gain one-stop access to Canadian cities across WestJet’s domestic network. The arrangement is subject to regulatory approval and includes single-booking travel and through-checked baggage.

The agreement comes as WestJet prepares to begin seasonal non-stop service to Keflavík from Edmonton and Winnipeg later this month. Its seasonal Calgary-Keflavík service is also scheduled to return for the 2026 summer travel season, adding further transatlantic links through Icelandair’s hub.
