Both Calgary and Edmonton have international airports. Calgary's is the third largest in Canada by passenger volume. It serves as the base of low-priced airline Westjet, which provides service to North American mainly Canadian, Mexican and Caribbean destinations. Edmonton's is the fastest growing in Canada, with multiple expansions in place. International Service is provided by multiple carriers at both locations, including multiple direct flights to London and Frankfurt each day. Other destinations are usually connecting through Vancouver or Toronto. Both airports act as collection points, Calgary for the prairie provinces, and Edmonton for regions in the Canadian North like Grande Prairie and Yellowknife.
