westjet already uses a reward chart – it’s just not officially published:
via – http://blog.rewardscanada.ca/2017/10/westjet-rewards-lowers-thats-right.html
As of October 11th the new lowest Member Exclusive rates for WestJet flights are as follows:
Canada Short haul: 99 WestJet dollars each way (198 round trip)
Canada Long Haul: 125 WestJet dollars each way (250 round trip)
Canada to Europe: 299 WestJet dollars each way (598 round trip)
Canada to South America: 329 each way (658 round trip)
Canada to Africa: 429 each way (858 round trip)
Canada to Japan or China: 549 each way (1,098 round trip)
Canada to Australia: 659 each way (1,308 round trip)
Thanks Zach, I recall you had gotten in touch with me on that. As I understand these would be subject to availability constraints similar to regular awards, right? Hopefully WestJet launches similar deals for a good price point when they announce their long-haul 787 routes with the new business class.
Huh. I assumed Westjet dollars were identical to regular dollars. I just got the RBC Avion with its 25,000 points, transferable to $250 Westjet dollars but figured that would buy me literally $250 towards a flight. According to the above, I can fly long haul within Canada for that?
Keep thinking that so the rest of us get the ME fares 😉
They did recently hire Jayce Loh, so I’m hoping this does mean upcoming positive changes in terms of their loyalty program.
