Annual round-trip companion voucher

As a WestJet RBC^® Mastercard^‡ cardholder, you can receive an annual round-trip companion voucher EVERY year when you spend $2,500 or more on your card.¹⁹

How does it work?

The companion voucher allows you to invite someone special to fly with you on a round trip within Canada or to/from continental U.S. All you need to do is book a round trip for yourself (the primary cardholder) and you’ll get a reduced fare for the second guest on the same itinerary.¹⁹

Round-trip companion voucher fares¹⁹

Within Canada or to/from continental U.S. (excludes Hawaii):

UltraBasic, Econo, EconoFlex: $199 (plus taxes, fees and other ATC)
Premium or Premium Flex: $299 (plus taxes, fees and other ATC)

The companion voucher expires at 23:59:59 MT on the date of expiry.
Once approved for the WestJet RBC Mastercard, the credit card companion voucher will be deposited into your account 4 – 6 weeks after your first purchase transaction date and 30 days after your card renewal date each year thereafter if the minimum spend is achieved.
