The Las Vegas-Canada connection just got better.

Calgary, Alberta-based WestJet recently launched nonstop service five times a week to and from Montreal. The new route brings to 10 the number of WestJet routes from Las Vegas to cities throughout Canada.

Flights will leave Montreal at 9:45 a.m., local time, and arrive in Las Vegas at 12:23 p.m. daily, except Wednesday and Saturday. Return flights leave McCarran at 1:15 p.m. and arrive in Montreal at 9:08 p.m.

The airline, which is developing a codeshare agreement with Southwest Airlines, uses twin-engine Boeing 737 jets on the route. WestJet is introducing the flight with $159 one-way fares, not including taxes.
