WestJet says it still expects to accept its first Boeing 737 MAX 10 by the end of 2026, contingent on U.S. regulatory approval. The Canadian carrier is planning to introduce the larger MAX 10 as part of its narrowbody fleet renewal, timing delivery to the certification outcome.

Briefing
WestJet's target delivery date — first 737 MAX 10 by end-2026, subject to U.S. certification — establishes a concrete timetable for its narrowbody renewal and delivery planning.
The timing directly intersects with WestJet's broader Summer 2026 network growth, which depends on additional narrowbody capacity arriving on schedule.
This fleet plan coincides with a delayed completion of a Korean Air minority stake in WestJet (now targeted for 1Q26), a material corporate development for financing and strategic execution.
