Severe cold weather has led to the cancellation of more than 460 WestJet flights across Canada this week, since Thursday, Jan. 11, and it’s expected to cause continued travel disruptions in the Prairie region into early next week.

“We sincerely apologize to guests who have been impacted by cancellations and delays, resulting from ongoing extreme cold temperatures affecting Canada’s prairie region,” WestJet said in a statement issued on Jan. 14.
