WestJet began regularly scheduled service to Cuba from Toronto on Thursday. The Canadian low-cost carrier, of course, has been in the news this week for its apparent codeshare alliance waffling between Delta and Southwest.  

Previously, the WestJet offered only charter service to Cuba. WestJet will operate regularly scheduled flights from Toronto Pearson to the Cuban destinations of Varadero, Cayo Coco and Holguin.

"The response to our WestJet Vacations' charters has been tremendous," Hugh Dunleavy, WestJet EVP of Strategy and Planning, says in a press release.

"Now, by offering scheduled service to Cuba, our guests can book a flight directly on westjet.com, through their preferred travel agent or by calling our Sales Super Centre."
