Air Canada back on top – Top Canada travel sites, March 24 2012

March 26, 2012 By Leave a Comment

WestJet stayed at the top of leading airline websites in Canada for just one week after Air Canada moved ahead despite both gaining more share of traffic.

Air Canada added to its previous tally with almost a 2% gain in market share, as WestJet increased it share by nearly 1%.

This was enough though for Air Canada to leapfrog into first place as the gap between the pair the previous week, when WestJet secured first place, was just 0.5%.
