While summer may be waning, interest in travelling across Canada is not and for this reason, WestJet and Destination Canada have partnered on a campaign based on the iconic phrase, “Ready. Set. Go.” The campaign, Ready. Set. Canada. is inspiring Canadians to not just dream but go and visit domestic destinations and experiences only a short (WestJet) flight away. 

Ready. Set. Canada. shares picturesque destination images along with clever takes on the phrasing Ready. Set. Go.,” said Rob Daintree, WestJet Director Marketing Communications.

“As Canadians once again look to reunite with family and friends or explore the country, we understand though that inspiration to travel may bring some first flight apprehension. WestJetters are here to help and we stand at the ready to welcome Canadians safely on board with enhanced cleaning and a caring experience.”
