WestJet says some passengers’ personal information was obtained in a cyberattack in June, however it believes the breach did not involve “sensitive” data in most cases.

The airline issued a notice to U.S. residents on Monday related to its ongoing probe into the June 13 incident, which it said was carried out by a “sophisticated, criminal third party.”
