Northern Super League Announces WestJet As Official Airline

The Northern Super League is proud to welcome WestJet as the Official Airline of Canada’s first professional women’s soccer league and its six clubs. This milestone marks WestJet’s first sponsorship of a women’s professional sports league and underscores its commitment to empowering women in sports and inspiring future generations.

“For nearly two decades, WestJet has championed women in sports through our Caring for Our Community and Airport Community Giving programs,” said Jeff Hagen, Vice-President of Commercial Development & Strategic Partnerships at WestJet. “Becoming the Official Airline of the Northern Super League takes this commitment to new heights. This partnership represents more than just travel—it’s an investment in the future of women’s sports in Canada. We’re proud to connect fans and players to the game while contributing to the league’s success.”

Through this multiyear agreement, WestJet will provide essential transportation for all six clubs, playing a key role in connecting players, fans, and communities nationwide. The partnership is designed to support the league’s sustainable growth while enhancing the athlete experience with team booking policies that offer flexibility for players travelling with their families.

Fans attending games in person or tuning in via TSN, RDS, and CBC Sports will see WestJet’s branding prominently featured in stadiums across the country. The airline will also engage fans through digital activations and social contests, giving them opportunities to fly and experience the matches firsthand.
