Sunwing Vacations Fully Integrates with WestJet May 29: Key Changes for 2025

Sunwing Vacations will officially integrate into WestJet as of May 29, 2025, with all flights operating as WestJet, the tour operator announced as they revealed their initial summer schedule.

“We’re thrilled to introduce our initial summer lineup featuring many of the popular sun destinations our advisors and mutual clients know and love, along with trending sun destinations including St. Maarten, Freeport and Panama, further solidifying our standing as Canada’s leading vacation provider and deepening our commitment to offering accessible vacations to Canadian travellers,” said Andrew Dawson, President of Sunwing Vacations Group.

“Looking ahead, with the final Sunwing Airlines aircraft being integrated into WestJet’s fleet by the end of May, all Sunwing Vacations package customers will travel on board WestJet flights effective May 29. This transition will enhance connectivity and enable us to service more clients across the country on a year-round basis, and we can’t wait for more travel advisors and clients, including in the province of Québec, to experience the benefits and value of an all inclusive Sunwing vacation this summer and beyond.”
