About WestJet

WestJet took to the skies in 1996 with just over 200 employees and three aircraft operating service to five destinations. Since then, WestJet has pioneered low-cost travel in Canada, cutting airfares in half, and increasing the flying population in Canada by more than 50 percent. Following the 2025 integration of Sunwing, WestJet now has more than 14,000 WestJetters to support nearly 200 aircraft and connect guests to more than 100 destinations across North America, Central America, the Caribbean, Europe and Asia. 

The WestJet Group is Canada’s leading low-cost airline and largest vacation provider, with a united purpose of providing affordable and accessible air and vacation travel to Canadians. 

Wherever in the world your travels take you, our airline partners are ready to fly you there in comfort, safety and style. Discover more about the experience you can look forward to enjoying next time you fly.

If your flight number does not start with VS, head to the airline’s frequent flyer programme and add your Flying Club number to your booking.
