WestJet flights, booked by humans who know WS inside out
WestJet grew from a low-cost regional airline into a full-service carrier with transatlantic Dreamliner routes from Calgary.
WestJet overview
WestJet grew from a low-cost regional airline into a full-service carrier with transatlantic Dreamliner routes from Calgary. Founded in 1996, the airline operates from its primary hub at Calgary (YYC) and operates independently of the global alliances, often partnering selectively on specific routes. Our desk books WestJet daily and knows which fare classes, routings, and connection cities deliver the best value on WS-operated flights.

WestJet baggage policy
Baggage on WestJet is fare-dependent: budget-oriented fares generally cover a personal item only, while standard and premium fares add carry-on and checked allowances. Long-haul routes usually include one or two checked bags in the base fare. Prepaying bags at ticketing is nearly always cheaper than paying at the airport, and our agents add baggage at the lowest published rate when they issue your ticket. See our extra baggage service for details.
WestJet cancellation policy
WestJet tickets booked in the US market can be cancelled free within 24 hours of purchase when departure is at least a week away. After that, refundable fares return cash, non-refundable fares generally become credit, and the lowest fare tiers may hold little or no residual value. Our agents review your exact fare rules before you cancel anything. Need help right now? Our cancellation desk reviews your ticket free of charge.
WestJet date change policy
Changing dates on WestJet means paying the fare difference to the new flight, plus a change fee on some restricted fares. Flexible and premium tickets typically change free. Call us before changing anything — rebooking into the right booking class can cut the difference dramatically. More on our date change service.
WestJet check-in information
WestJet check-in opens online roughly 24–48 hours pre-departure (varies by route). International flights typically require you at the airport 3 hours early; bag drop closes about an hour before departure. Passengers with special assistance needs should arrive on the earlier side.

WestJet — frequently asked questions
How do I book WestJet flights through VoyageStates?
Call +1 (888) 555-0199 or submit the enquiry form on this page with your route and dates. A specialist compares WestJet's published fares against our contracted rates and quotes your all-in price — usually within 30 minutes.
Can VoyageStates get cheaper WestJet fares than the airline's website?
Frequently, yes — especially on international and premium-cabin itineraries where wholesale consolidator fares apply. On simple domestic routes prices may match, but you still gain a dedicated agent for changes and disruptions.
How do I cancel or change a WestJet booking?
If you booked with us, one call handles it. If you booked elsewhere, we can often still assist and will tell you upfront when WestJet requires you to contact them directly.
Does WestJet belong to an alliance?
WestJet is independent and not part of a global alliance, with its primary hub at Calgary (YYC).
