Canada’s WestJet has announced it will expand its domestic and international fleet with the purchase of 67 Boeing aircraft, expanding its total order with the company to 123. WestJet will take delivery of sixty 737-10 jets with options for 25 more, and seven 787-9 aircraft with options for four more.
