Earlier this month, the Canadian government approved the merger of SunWing and WestJet airlines

Now that an airline routinely flying out of Sault Ste. Marie has been approved to merge with WestJet Airlines, Sault Ste. Marie Airport CEO Terry Bos said he hopes it could restart a conversation to have that Calgary-based carrier return to the Sault.

Bos said years ago WestJet conducted a pilot project to fly out of Sault Ste. Marie Airport, but at the time the company was using large 737-class aircraft. Bos said if WestJet decided to make a return to the Sault it would likely be to a hub, like Toronto or Winnipeg.
