The WestJet Group has announced it will acquire three additional Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft, from SMBC Aviation Capital. These aircraft are in addition to the six new-to-WestJet Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft the WestJet Group announced earlier this summer.
The acquisition of nine leased Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft in the last six months allows the airline to bolster its plan for fleet growth, while managing delays for direct-from-factory aircraft. Leveraging these additional aircraft and subsequent capacity expansion, the WestJet Group will continue enhancing critical air access for its guests across its growing network.
