WestJet Begins Toronto-St. John’s-Dublin Service - Route Marks Carrier’s First Transatlantic Flights
WestJet announced the launch of new daily flights between Toronto and Dublin, Ireland, with a stopover in St. John’s, Canada. The new route is the first scheduled transatlantic service in the airline’s history. (www.frequentbusinesstraveler.com) Plus d'info...
I wonder why they stop in St. John's. It's a classic place for a fuel stop, but the 737-700 has a range of 3440 nm, and yyz-dub is 2849 nm along the great circle route.
That range is probably with max. fuel, not payload.
Is Mr. Ryanair aware of this? I can see a soon to be placed acquisition of the B737-9 or a few elderly B757's to test the competence of the route nonstop!
So another Ryan air
