WESTJET CARGO-ONLY CHARTERS TAKE FLIGHT
Yesterday, two WestJet 787 Dreamliners successfully delivered medical supplies from Dublin, Ireland to Atlanta via Toronto as cargo-only charters.
As the COVID-19 crisis has worsened and global supply lines have been cutoff due to the closing of borders and less international flying, our commitment to keeping vital supply chains open has not wavered. The WestJet Cargo team continues to work around the clock to move critical provisions, from medical products and perishables to household goods.
CONTACT CENTRE WAIT TIMES:
- We’re experiencing high volumes for our phone, email and social media support channels.
- In the effort to assist guests with imminent travel plans, we are asking all other guests to refrain from contacting us until 72 hours in advance of their flight to ensure we are able to prioritize our queue.
- We appreciate and thank our guests for their patience and understanding during this time.
ICYMI – WESTJET DONATES MORE THAN ONE MILLION PACKAGES OF PRETZELS
With less aircraft flying, and simplified inflight service on the ones that are, WestJet is handing out a lot less snacks to guests these days.
WestJetters on our Catering Services and Distribution Centre teams started to reach out to community groups to donate extra food items with about 30 days left on their expiry date. To date, 5,376 cases (almost 1,074,200 packages) of pretzels have been shared with local Calgary and Toronto food banks, shelters, community groups and meal programs.
