  Canadian airline WestJet has canceled the launch of a new nonstop route between Austin and Vancouver, citing a "downward shift in demand" for travel between Canada and the United States.

WestJet has canceled its planned route from Austin, Texas, to Calgary, Alberta, which was set to begin on September 6, 2023, due to delays in receiving new aircraft. The airline had intended to use the new Boeing 737 Max 8 planes for this route, but delivery delays have forced WestJet to adjust its expansion plans. This cancellation is part of a broader impact on WestJet's summer schedule, as the airline also had to reduce its overall capacity. WestJet apologized to affected customers and is offering refunds or re-accommodation on alternative flights.
