WOW! At  long last CANADIAN AIRLINE WEST JET IS OFFERING DIRECT FLIGHTS FROM TORONTO to BELIZE CITY.

Before this, travellers across Canada had to fly to the U.S to get a connecting flight to Belize. This meant going through American customs twice: first before boarding for the flight inside the U.S and the second before the flight out of the U.S.  enroute to Belize.

It was bad enough having to go through U.S customs while still in Canada.  It was triple-ly worse repeating the experience again, somewhat analogous to beef cattle being herded to the slaughter house.

Not only that. Because of the unavoidable lay-over in the U,S., we had to fly out of Toronto around 6:30 a.m., sometime arriving at Pearson International before Customs was even open and the airline staff hadn’t yet arrived for the morning shift. Returning was just as bad. We’d fly out of Belize at a civilized 2 p.m. but wouldn’t land back in Toronto till around mid-night.

NOW IT IS ALL CHANGED, CHANGED UTTERLY, A WONDERFUL AIRLINE’S BEEN BORN. BRAVO WEST JET. BRAVO!
