WestJet — Network & Service Overview
WestJet is a Canadian full-service airline founded in 1996. It operates as an independent carrier, unaffiliated with any global alliance. The airline is headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, and serves primarily leisure and business travellers across North America and international destinations. WestJet’s fleet consists of narrowbody and widebody aircraft, supporting its role as a mainstream airline rather than a low-cost specialist. While not part of an alliance, it maintains codeshare agreements with select partners to expand connectivity beyond its core routes.
WestJet’s primary hubs are Calgary International Airport (YYC) and Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ), which serve as its main gateways for long-haul and transborder flights. The airline’s route network spans 100 destinations, with strong coverage across Canada, the United States, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central America. In Europe, WestJet serves London Gatwick (LGW) and features seasonal routes to select Mediterranean and European leisure markets. Codeshare partnerships complement its network, notably with airlines such as Delta Air Lines and Qantas for connecting traffic beyond its direct routes.
WestJet’s cabin product includes standard economy seating, premium economy, and business class on long-haul flights. The airline does not charge for the first checked bag in economy on international routes, a feature often highlighted by travellers comparing policies. Its route niche includes leisure-focused destinations in Mexico, the Caribbean, and Hawaii, alongside business-heavy routes in Canada and the U.S. WestJet also operates seasonal services to popular European routes, often expanding capacity during peak travel periods. Baggage allowances and cabin policies vary by route and fare type, so travellers should review specific terms before booking.
