- WestJet Vacations packages are packaged vacations for up to nine guests on a single booking which include, at minimum, airfare on WestJet-operated flights and accommodations, and are sold for a combined base package price.

When ancillary products are purchased from a third-party partner, WestJet dollars are awarded to one member only based on the total eligible spend of the booking. When ancillary products are purchased from WestJet Vacations as a land-only booking, WestJet dollars are awarded individually to each member on the booking for their proportionate share of the total eligible spend, except where only one member is listed on all or some of the reservations for the ancillary products, in which case only the member listed will be awarded WestJet dollars for the applicable portion of the eligible spend.
