What is a companion voucher issued as a milestone award?
A companion voucher issued as a milestone award is an award you will receive when you reach certain qualifying spend milestones in your annual qualifying year. At $4,000 and $6,000 in qualifying spend you'll receive a WestJet-wide companion voucher, valid for round-trip travel in Economy or Premium anywhere in WestJet's world (excluding flights operated by partner airlines). For milestone awards issued at $8,000 in qualifying spend and higher, you'll be invited to choose from several award options, including a WestJet-wide companion voucher. Companion vouchers issued as milestone awards allow you, the member, to take anyone with you on the same itinerary for no additional cost, other than taxes, fees and charges. The base fare for the companion will be waived, regardless of the amount. Valid on published fares in Economy or Premium, including seat sale fares paid for in whole or in part with WestJet dollars. Not valid on Business or Member Exclusive fares.

Bookings must be made prior to the expiry date; travel may occur after the expiry date subject to flight schedule availability at the time of booking.
